Ì첩ÌåÓý-PS Response to Gov. John Bel Edwardsâ€� Announcement Regarding Mask
(New Orleans â€� October 26, 2021) â€� Ì첩ÌåÓý Public Schools (Ì첩ÌåÓý-PS) supports Gov. John Bel Edwards' decision to continue to recommend masks in schools, and therefore will keep in place its mask requirements inside school buildings, on school buses, and during school-related events.
Masks are a proven precaution against the spread of COVID-19, especially as we continue to wait for vaccines to become available for children under 12 and continue to encourage eligible older students and staff to get vaccinated as soon as possible.
Ì첩ÌåÓý-PS is working with the New Orleans Health Department to determine our future course of action should the levels of community spread continue to decline and vaccination rates increase. We are committed to continued dialogue with our schools to ensure we are keeping their students and educators safe and healthy throughout this pandemic.
