Dear West Boylston Families,

Districts were recently informed that the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education have made the following recommendations regarding masks:

 For summer programs: Masking indoors and maintaining other health and safety guidance is not required, but is encouraged. The DESE summer guidance is in alignment with state guidance encouraging unvaccinated individuals to continue to mask. The DPH mask advisory advises unvaccinated residents to continue wearing masks in indoor settings and when they can’t socially distance.

 For the fall: At this time, all health and safety guidance including masking and physical distancing will be lifted. We will collaborate with the Department of Public Health (DPH) to issue any additional health and safety recommendations over the summer should they become necessary. 

After reviewing the updated provisions with our local Board of Health, the mask mandate for West Boylston Public Schools students and staff has been lifted - effective immediately. From this point forward, it will remain an individual’s determination if they chose to wear a mask.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions.  

Sincerely, Richard Meagher
