Christian County Public Schools have entered the last week of the school year, and are already looking ahead to the upcoming school year and how to best prepare for it.
In a press conference Tuesday, Superintendent Chris Bentzel says along with the Pfizer vaccine clinics that have already been announced for Monday, there will be a second round of clinics on June 19 for students to receive their second dose.
The district is still contemplating hosting additional clinics, should the need arise and Bentzel says he doesn’t expect those shots to become mandatory for students in the state. After much discussion with parents and students, Bentzel will speak to the board on Thursday about the fact that roughly 20 high school students and 16 middle and elementary students could retake their previous school year, thanks to Senate Bill 128.

May 28 Mansfield ISD COVID-19 Protocols Will Expire, Masks Optional
In a heated school board meeting Tuesday night the Mansfield community voiced their opinions for and against the use of masks. Some parents argued COVID cases have declined and its time to “let kids be kids” again, while others argued masks are critical to reducing the spread of COVID.
A group of parents called “Unmask Mansfield ISD” rallied likeminded parents to attend tonight’s school board meeting, but decided they would not publicly speak on the topic.
They shared this on the group’s Facebook page “We have decided we WILL NOT be speaking publicly as we recognize that voting on this issue is merely to satisfy a procedural formality. We believe the school board members will vote to LIFT THE DISTRICT’S MASK REQUIREMENT.”
