MUSKEGON, Mich. — Muskegon Public Schools joins many other school districts in West Michigan that will require universal masking indoors when students return to the classroom.
With school starting on Aug. 26, Superintendent Matthew T. Cortez sent home a letter to parents and guardians laying out this semester's COVID-19 safety plan.
Here are some of the procedures:
- Students, staff and visitors will be required to wear masks while indoors.
- Air purifiers will be run in each classroom area.
- Regular washing/sanitizing of hands will be allowed throughout the day.
- Social distancing will be practiced with an optimum 3 feet spacing whenever possible.
- Sanitization of touch points and common areas will occur throughout the day.
- Nightly sanitization and cleaning of the entire building will be completed.
The CDC and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services recommend universal masking while indoors to help slow the spread of the Delta variant.
