Hundreds more students and
teachers are back in the classroom Thursday.
Today, 48 more school
districts kicked off their school year.
As News 12 has reported,
schools will no longer have to follow state COVID-19 requirements for contact
tracing, daily testing or quarantining. Masks are also optional.
However, some rules do remain
the same.
Health officials say if a
student or teacher tests positive they must stay home for at least five days.
When their symptoms
go away, they can return to school and should wear a mask until day 10.
