Good evening, Worcester families,
This is Superintendent of Schools Lou Taylor. I am calling you this evening to let you know that the State Board of Education met today to discuss current COVID-19 metrics as well as the statewide face covering mandate.
During their meeting, they decided to repeal the regulation mandating face masks statewide. With this action, the repeal of the mandate moves to a state legislative committee, who will also need to vote in favor of the repeal in order for it to go into effect.
That being said, our Responsible Return 2.0 team is working diligently to plan and prepare any changes needed to our current health and safety protocols should this repeal go into effect. If and when the legislature repeals the mandate, we will communicate any changes to our protocols with you as soon as possible.
Have a good evening, and may God Bless you and your family.
