El Dorado High School

At tonight’s monthly school board meeting, the El Dorado School Board voted to continue the mask policy for students and staff. The current policy requires masks, or other appropriate face coverings, for all persons present on school campuses or in school vehicles or buses, including staff, students, visitors, and others while they are inside buildings or on buses. The Board made two changes to the policy: --double-layered neck gaiters can be worn. --teachers and students can take their masks off when positioned 6 feet away from others as directed by a teacher. To view the ESD Mask Policy, visit bit.ly/ESDMaskPolicy.
