WYOMING COUNTY, WV (LOOTPRESS)– Yesterday, the Wyoming County School board voted 4-1 to follow the superintendent’s recommendation for masks in school.
Superintendent Deirdre Cline recommended that the decision for students to wear face coverings are to be made by parents. On the first day of school, students will receive a form for parents to check whether or not their child will wear a mask for the school year. The deadline for the forms are due no later than Tuesday, August 31.
“As we work together in this ever-changing health situation our focus must be on a safe and positive learning environment for children,” said the flyer.
According to a flyer that was sent out, future information about protocols will be posted and sent home to parents.
The flyer also asks anyone with questions to call the child’s school or central office with questions.
“Everyone within Wyoming County Schools is excited to welcome our students to what will be a wonderful school year!,” finished the flyer.
