Back to class means back to masks for some students and staff in Massachusetts.
In an effort to keep flu and COVID cases down, some school districts have asked students to mask up after returning from holiday break. The move is temporary and is only a suggestion, not a requirement.
Arlington, Boston, Newton and Watertown are among the school districts putting a temporary mask advisory in place. Students and staff are encouraged to wear masks for the first two weeks of the year. In Arlington, the superintendent sent out a memo to parents explaining that the decision was not made lightly and that it comes after a number of absences due to illness before the break.Sign up for NECN newsletters."It's a huge disruption to us as parents if our kiddos get sick with COVID or something else, so we're just trying to be really safe," Gallow said.
Sarah Horsley's son will go back to class Wednesday, but she's part of a group of Boston Public Schools parents who say the mask recommendation does not go far enough.
