Mask Reminders
In a called Florence City Board of Education meeting on Monday, August 16, 2021, members approved a recommendation by FCS Superintendent Dr. Jimmy Shaw to require masks for individuals in Pre-K through 12th grade effective August 19, 2021.
The masking requirement for Pre-K through 12th grade is for all students, teachers, faculty, staff, and visitors inside an FCS building. Exceptions to the inside masking requirement will include students involved in physical education and while eating. Faculty and staff exemptions include adults being alone in classrooms, offices, etc. Masking will not be required for individuals while outside a Pre-K-12 school.
Help everyone stay SAFE & HEALTHY by screening your children for symptoms of illness before sending them to school.
