Kids in the San Diego Union School District could leave their masks at home this morning when they went to school. Students, families, staff, and visitors on campus and at district sites will no longer be required to wear masks indoors on April 4, 2022.
SAN DIEGO – Kids in the San Diego Union School District could leave their masks at home this morning when they head off to school.
As COVID-19 cases in our community have started to fall, we have been working with our scientific and medical experts to plan for an “off ramp” to end some of the more restrictive health measures in place. Two weeks ago, we spoke with our advisors from UC San Diego, the majority felt at that time that removing a mask mandate was premature, as the local COVID-19 case rate remained high. Yesterday, the Centers for Disease Control moved San Diego County into the lowest level of concern.
We will once again provide all students and staff with at-home COVID-19 tests to use before returning to campus following Spring Break. This strategy worked extremely well before Winter Break, and we are grateful to have enough tests to be able to repeat the process. By testing before returning from Spring Break, staff and families can ensure that they are not returning to campus with a COVID infection.
Civility and respect for one another will be essential during this month of transition. As a community, we can be proud of the steps we have taken together to keep one another safe. At the same time, we acknowledge the fact that many families are grieving due to a loved one lost too soon to COVID-19. Our children will be watching how we support one another in the months ahead. Please take this time to discuss what lessons your family will take away from this exceptional time.
