Masks will become optional in Tucson Unified School District on March 28 if COVID transmission rates remain medium to low.
The TUSD Governing Board voted 4-1 Tuesday to end the district's current mask mandate, adopting in its place a guidance chart for administrators to follow, based on community COVID-19 rates.
If Pima County is classified as having a high transmission rate, TUSD administrators are to implement mask mandates for all indoor activities and large outdoor events. Citing previous trends in which COVID-19 cases spiked after vacation breaks, Governing Board members Natalie Luna Rose and Adelita Grijalva said they felt comfortable setting the date for March 28, one week after spring break ends, to see if cases increase.“I really believe that we will be doing a disservice to our district and the Tucson community at large if we change our mask policy at this point,” Shaw said.
