At Monday night’s meeting, the Marion Center School Board was updated on the k-12 mask mandate that’s currently in place.
Superintendent Clint Weimer said that if nothing changes, the mask mandate would expire on December 4th per the Commonwealth Court order, and Marion Center School District would go to a “mask optional” policy as per the district’s health and safety plan. But Weimer had a concern about contact tracing multiplying by a large amount.
Weimer said that while the district would be able to handle any eventuality, he feels that students should be back in the classroom.
In other business, the board approved participating in the Allegheny Intermediate Unit joint purchasing program, and the board approved authorizing the Indiana County Assessment office to complete an interim property assessment for the 2022 year as needed for properties within the district.
