Dear Highland County Public Schools Families,
Beginning on Monday January 24, 2022, masks will be recommended for the safety of all students, staff, and for the safety of the school. This is due to the high number of COVID cases in the county. However, based on the Governor’s order we will not be enforcing mask mandates inside the school. Due to Federal Law, masks will be required on all school buses. Staff and adults will be required to continue wearing masks while in the school building. The safety and well-being of our students and staff is the top priority of Highland County Public Schools.
Following the recommendation of the CDC and the VDH we have been able to keep our schools open for in person instruction with minimal number of positive cases and select quarantine. Without the masks Highland County Public Schools is concerned that a large number of students will need to be
quarantined or will be infected with COVID.
Highland County Public Schools would like to thank the parents for their help and understanding during these difficult times.
