Dickson Co. Schools end bus mask mandate, indoors still required
View Comments
Students are no longer required to wear masks on Dickson County Schools buses following a county school board vote Thursday.
The board made the decision at a special meeting called after Gov. Bill Lee’s recent announcement the state would reduce COVID-19 mandates and move toward reopening.
Students can still wear masks on the bus if they choose.
The board voted to keep the current school district guidelines for inside school facilities, which require students to wear masks if they are not at least three feet apart.
“I would like to see us leave the indoor policy we have remain in place for the remainder of the school year,” said board member Patricia Hudson. “It has proven to be helpful.”

Dickson County Schools announced that the May graduations for Dickson County and Creek Wood high schools will not be a ticketed event.
Last school year, COVID-19 led to multiple changes in the graduation ceremonies after county schools closed entirely in March.
County Schools Director Dr. Danny Weeks announced this week the following information on Twitter: “We are proud to announce that we are lifting the ticket requirement for our two high school graduations. Congratulations seniors. We are proud to have this opportunity.”
Both the graduations are also returning to the traditional month of May after being pushed to June last year when each student was allotted four tickets to use for family members.

The total cost will be $402,000 for the bonuses, which will also include a pro-rated bonus for part-time employees, Weeks said. The state funding will pay for a portion of the costs. The legislature made it very clear it was a certified bonus,” said Schools Director Dr. Danny Weeks at the school board’s regular monthly meeting Thursday. “This board has a history, and very proudly, of recognizing our non-certified staff at the same time.
Weeks said the bonus would cost $112,000 for only the certified teachers. However, he offered other options for non-certified staff bonuses.
