At tonight's board meeting, the Rich Township High School Board of Education approved the recommendation for face masks to be optional in all district buildings. Starting Thursday, October 27th, individuals have the choice to wear a face mask while in the buildings. While masks are optional, the district recommends masks be worn. Below is a link to the mask recommendation presentation from the October 26th board meeting.

Face masks will remain optional unless the COVID cases increase to a level which warrants a different decision.
As always, stay safe, stay healthy, and continue to look after each other.
