Face Coverings/Masks: the April 5th public health order stating children under age 10 do not need to wear facemasks was amended on April 9th to state “The Director’s Order signed August 13, 2020 requiring the use of Facial Coverings in Child Education Settings remains in effect and supersedes any conflict with this Order. Only those exemptions listed in the August 13, 2020 Order apply in the education settings.” A copy of the amended order can be found here.
