Milford Schools Mask Mandate Ending Feb. 28

MILFORD, CT — Milford Public Schools will be mask optional for all PK-12 students beginning Monday Feb. 28.

Superintendent Anna Cutaia announced her decision Friday in a letter to the school community.

Masks will still be required on school buses due to federal regulations.

"We understand that this change will impact students, staff and families differently," Cutaia wrote. "We want to highlight for all the environment of mutual respect and care we have built in our schools and encourage everyone to support individual decisions on mask wearing–whether individuals choose to continue to mask or remove masks– as we move into a mask-optional environment."

Here is the full text of the letter.
