South Tippah School district will be going to a mask optional plan starting Friday, October 1st.
Masks are still highly recommended.
From the District:
Due to a decrease in positive cases throughout the district, masks will be optional but HIGHLY RECOMMENDED beginning October 1st. Thank you for your patience throughout this process.
If a significant increase in positive case/quarantines takes place, the mask mandate will be reinstated at the specific school in which the increase has occurred.
Numbers will be evaluated on weekly basis.
Masks have been required for all prek-12 students for the last 8 weeks in South Tippah.
