The Guy-Perkins School Board adopted an Emergency Communicable Diseases Control Plan tonight (Tuesday) requiring that all students, staff, and visitors to the district wear masks (face coverings). A copy of this plan can be accessed at https://tinyurl.com/fyyubsdn. This plan was created in response to district and community stakeholder feedback; current COVID-19 infection data; and the need to protect our student population, especially those under the age of 12 who are unable to receive a COVID-19 vaccination.
From our partner, Faulkner County Sheriff's Office.
