St. Joe Schools Remove Mask Mandate
October 26, 2021 5:48AM CDT
With a 5-2 vote Monday night the St. Joseph School District Board of Education voted to remove their mask mandate, effective immediately.
The move comes just one month after a 6-1 vote kept that mandate for students and teachers in place.
While voting to remove the mask requirement, the Board stressed that any teacher or student that wants to continue to wear a mask is encouraged to do so.
Federal requirements still mandate that students be masked on school buses.
