Park County School District #6 has confirmed that two staff members tested positive, but there is “no intention of going back” to mandatory masks in Cody.
Park County School District #6 Superintendent Peg Monteith confirmed that two staff at Cody Middle School tested positive for COVID-19. Their positions in the school have not been disclosed.
These cases come only two weeks after all Cody schools got permission from the state to go maskless. All students in the district have been attending classes without masks since late April.
On Tuesday, April 20, the Cody school board voted unanimously to request the variance. Park County Public Health Officer Dr. Aaron Billin submitted the variance request to the Wyoming Department of Health on April 22, which approved it the next day.

On Wednesday, April 28, Park County reported 22 new cases of COVID-19, one of the largest single day increases recently.
Through contact tracing the public health department was able to discover the majority of those cases were due to individuals who arrived from out of state and had tested positive.
Park County Public Health Officer Dr. Aaron Billin said all those individuals are currently quarantining, and the new cases have slowed. But we anticipate more speed bumps in the road to recovery that will be similar to this, said Billin. So we just have to be very vigilant for the long run and adjust our public health policy as we go along.
