A message from Mounds View Public Schools

New guidance no longer requires masks on buses
From the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:
Effective February 25, 2022, the CDC is exercising its enforcement discretion to not require that people wear masks on buses or vans operated by public or private school systems, including early care and education/child care programs. CDC is making this change to align with updated guidance that no longer recommends universal indoor mask wearing in K-12 schools and early education settings in areas with a low or medium COVID-19 Community Level.
This new guidance applies to all individuals who ride buses in Mounds View Public Schools. We know that some students, staff or drivers will choose to keep wearing masks on buses, and others will choose to not wear masks. We will honor and support all individuals in whatever choice they make.
