Statement On Mask Use In Schools

😷 Statement On Mask Use In Schools - from the CPHO & PSB:

“CPHO has issued a 5 day mandatory isolation period from the time a person develops symptoms of COVID-19 or from the date a person tests positive, whichever is shorter.  A person can stop isolating after 5 days if they have no symptoms or if their condition improves with no fever in the past 24 hours.  CPHO recommends wearing a mask for the next 5 days in indoor public spaces, including schools.  Parents and students are asked to do their best with masking compliance in public settings in the 5 days after leaving isolation. Schools are asked to recommend and encourage this practice.  However, a student can still attend school if they refuse to wear a mask.”
