Mandatory masks may be in FCCSC students’ near future

By John Estridge

Franklin County Community School Corporation Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting Monday afternoon, August 23.

First on the school board’s 5:30 p.m. agenda is “discussion on COVID-19 procedures.” That could be a discussion about making masks mandatory at the schools within the system. Or some other safety procedures could be discussed by the board members.

There were 22 new COVID cases in Franklin County out of 128 tested for a positivity rate of 17 percent on Friday, August 20. FC is designated next to the worst level in the state regarding percentage of people testing positive per 100,000 residents. Friday’s numbers for the state were 4,120 new cases and 14 deaths attributed to the virus.

After the board members discuss the procedures, they will take a tour of the new music suite and gymnasium upgrades at Franklin County High School.
