Several schools in central Indiana, including the Franklin Township School Corporation, Westfield Washington Schools and Carmel Clay Schools have announced plans to no longer require masks.
Starting Wednesday, masks will no longer be required inside Franklin Township Community School Corporation buildings. In a Facebook post, the school corporation said this is because the latest COVID-19 data shows it is at the lowest positivity and quarantine rates since the start of the pandemic.
Starting Tuesday, Feb. 22, Carmel Clay Schools will also move to mask optional, Emily Bauer, director of community relations for the district, said.
