As you are aware, masks have been mandated by the governor of Ohio. This is a requirement for attending school. If your child has no access to masks or family cannot obtain a mask, one will be provided to him/her upon entering school. If you refuse to comply with with mandate, unfortunately, we have no option but to request that you enroll in our district's Option 2 (Adams Virtual Academy or AVA. If your child has an extenuating medical condition that prohibits him/her from wearing a mask, the doctor's statement indicating the medical reason Must be provided to the school and reviewed by the Adams County Health/Commissioner/Department for approval/validation. Only upon approval/validation, will your child then be excused from the mask mandate. Please keep in mind that by not wearing a mask, your child is considered at risk for airborne pathogens/germs. If you plan to provide medical documentation , please do so prior to the first of school as there must be time for submission to the Health Department for review and approval. Otherwise, your child will be required to wear the mask until the approval/validation is granted. The first day of school is Wednesday, August 19, 2020. If you have any questions, please contact Brian Ruckel, Principal.
