Hood River Schools Confirm Mask Requirement

The Hood River County School District says masks will be required for all students and staff as the 2021-22 school year gets underway in September.  In a statement released on Friday, Superintendent Rich Polkinghorn said the state established the rule to start the year with masks last week.  Polkinghorn said the district will work to look at ways to maximize outdoor learning opportunities, and when the masking mandate is lifted, the district will work with the Hood River County Health Department on modifying its plans related to COVID-19 precautions.  Masks must cover the nose and mouth.  A face shield will not be allowed unless an individual cannot wear a mask for medical reasons.
