Schools, colleges respond to reinstated mask mandate

View Comments With Gov. John Bel Edwards  state-wide mask mandate taking effect this week, Louisiana students will once again head back to school wearing masks. The mandate applies to anyone 5 and up in all public places, which includes K-12 schools and college campuses. Folks will be required to wear a mask starting Wednesday, and the mandate is initially scheduled to last until Sept. 1. This decision upends the previous notion that school districts would get to determine their COVID-19 mask requirements for the 2021-22 school year.  Edwards reinstated the mandate in response to the state s fourth surge of COVID cases, which is largely driven by the delta variant. According to Edwards, folks under 29 are driving the surge in cases, and young people ages 12-18 are a huge part.
