Weston Public Schools: Mask Mandate Through November 5th

Press release from Weston Public Schools:

Lee McCanne

October 6, 2021

Dear Weston School Community,

The Weston Board of Health decided today to keep in place the mask mandate K-12 through the first week in November.  We support this decision.

Although the High School vaccination rate is over 80 % and we commend students and families for their efforts, the district has significant hesitation to go maskless indoors at any time before early November. This is because of the state’s inability to provide a vigorous testing program that they had assured districts would be in place weeks ago. 

We continue as a district leadership team to work closely with Michele Schuckel, Kelly Pawluczonek and the Weston Board of Health. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding while we navigate through this complex and ever-changing landscape.
