As many of you already know, the South Central Board of Education met last night and took no action on adopting the state mask mandate. What this means is that we will revert back to the recommended (parent choice) plan adopted on July 21st.
We have our next school board meeting Wednesday, August 18th, 6 p.m. @ South Central Unit Office. We have no plans to discuss or place face coverings or our Return to Learn Plan as an agenda item. Thus, action can't take place regarding either item.
We feel we have a good plan to start the school year and look forward to a great start of the 2021-2022 school year. If you would like to express your thoughts on the executive order or mask mandate please feel free to use the contact list below.
Thanks
