Community Letter 3.7.22

March 7, 2022

Dear MSAD #60 Community;

This letter is written as a follow up to thank the community for continued efforts around the most recent shift in COVID-19 guidelines regarding “optional masking.” As stated in the Community Correspondence last week, it is the expectation that the entire school community will be supportive of those who continue to wear a face mask/covering and those who opt not to.

There are some students/staff who are immunocompromised, live with someone who is at risk of contracting COVID-19 and becoming quite ill, or aren't ready to remove their masks indoors. Our schools will be supportive of all decisions regarding the wearing of masks/face coverings. Reports from last Friday and again this morning suggest that our students and staff respect those decisions and we thank you for reinforcing that on the home front.

Please contact your school nurse if your student has tested positive for COVID-19 or if they have been exposed to someone who has tested positive.

Sincerely,

Audra Beauvais

Superintendent of Schools
