AUBURN â DeKalb County students can expect to see mask rules still in place when they return for the next school year in August.
âParents should assume that in the fall, that we will be starting up recommending masks be worn, unless something changes to allow us to drop that recommendation,â DeKalb County Health Officer Dr. Mark Souder said Thursday.
Souder gave that advice to local school administrators Wednesday, he said.
âThe program that the schools have in place â wearing masks and distancing and hygiene â has been excellent,â he said. âItâs going to be continued until the end of this school year.â
