Clinton-Massie High School

The Ohio Department of Health released guidance over the weekend that face shields are not an appropriate substitutes for masks. (https://odh.ohio.gov/wps/portal/gov/odh/media-center/odh-news-releases/face-shields-not-appropriate-substitute-for-masks) The Director's Order from 8/13/2020 states: "For the purposes of this order, a facial covering (mask) is any material that covers an individual's nose, mouth, and chin." (https://coronavirus.ohio.gov/static/publicorders/DO-K-12-facial-coverings.pdf)

Clinton-Massie Local Schools will be enforcing the Director's Order. Students will be required to wear a facial covering (mask) on the bus, during arrival and dismissal, in the hallways, and in the classrooms. Face shields can with be worn WITH a mask, but they cannot be the only facial covering. If your student requires a medical exemption, the form is located here.

Students will follow a typical school day schedule (all seven periods) for their staggered start date. We will begin block scheduling the first full week of school (August 31 - September 4).

The middle school and high school will follow an every other day rotation for red and blue days. To begin the week of August 31, we will start with a Red Day. Because school is closed for Labor Day on Monday, September 7, we will continue with a Blue Day when students return on Tuesday, September 8.

Due to safety precautions, students will not be able to access the water fountains throughout the building. However, the water bottle filling station will be available. Students are permitted to bring a CLEAR, PLASTIC water bottle with them.
