Mask mandates were lifted as of April 19 by Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey and now schools are addressing mask and COVID-19 protocols as the end of the year nears.
Executive order 2020-51 was rescinded and Dysart Unified School District officials put out communications that same day via the district website stating, “K-12 school districts and charter schools still maintain the right to institute and enforce policies to mitigate against COVID-19 spread, including the use of masks.”
The message went on to read the DUSD governing board takes the matter seriously and will discuss the topic in the next meeting, which begins at 6 p.m. Wednesday, April 28.
