Dear MCC School Family,
To eliminate any confusion regarding the CDC's recent masking guidelines for tomorrow, Monday, May 17th... Mason County Central Schools WILLREQUIRE all students, staff and visitors to continue to wear masks for the foreseeable future... likely for the remainder of this school year.
Since Friday's announcement we have received further clarifying guidance for schools from the CDC, then MDHHS and now from District Health Department #10's Medical Director, Dr. Morse. All 3 of these entities clearly state that for all those able in schools to continue wearing masks through the remainder of the this school year.
MCC has consistently followed the guidance of our healthcare experts from the beginning of this pandemic. The good news is the vaccines are working and have put us on a path back to normalcy. If this trend continues, it is very likely when we return to school in the fall, we will experience a more normal school environment.
We are close to the finish line Spartans... Stay Vigilant... Stay Strong... and Stay Healthy!!!
