More than one million pieces of Personal Protective Equipment (#PPE ) have been ordered to help #Phoenix #schools reopen for the 2020-2021 school year. Cloth masks with clear windows for visible expressions were a priority for teachers who have students with hearing impairments, a disability, learning English as a second language, or learning to read. Regular cloth masks were also ordered to allow for continued use throughout the school year. As Phoenix school districts begin to transition to in-class instruction, the city understands the importance each school is placing on the health and safety of their students, staff, and educators. School districts will be receiving supplies to distribute to schools.
