Mask Requirements at LOLHS
When to Wear/Remove a Face Covering
- Remember, COVID-19 is primarily transmitted through speaking, coughing, or sneezing.
- The face covering must cover your nose and mouth completely. Place the bottom over your chin and the top over your entire nose. Make sure that there is limited space open on the sides.
- A face covering is required on all school buses, in all school buildings, and during all school-sponsored events and activities. This requirement is applicable to all students and to all employees, parents, and visitors entering the buildings and/or attending a school event. Athletes will be encouraged, but not required to wear face coverings during practice and play.
- Everyone is responsible for supplying their own face coverings. Our school will be stocked with a limited number of cloth and disposable face masks.
- The face covering should be put on upon arrival at school before exiting your vehicle in the parking lot or drop off location. Face coverings must be worn on the bus.
- The face covering must remain in place while inside all buildings, including as you walk into the school building, when working in or walking through common areas such as hallways, and whenever you are in any room, including classrooms, or enclosed area where people are present.
- Face covering may be removed outdoors only when social distances of 6 feet is possible. Those students taking a bus must keep the mask in place until they have exited the bus.
- Since eating and drinking with a face covering in place is not possible, it can be removed during meal times. However, students must remain stationary and sitting while eating/drinking.
