Arizona Mask Update for Schools
New legislation in Arizona (A.R.S. 15-342.05) prohibits requiring a face covering to participate in in-person instruction. To comply with this statute, AAEC will not require masks on campus going forward. At this point, masks are optional for student, faculty, and visitors.
A.R.S. 15-342.05
A. Notwithstanding any other law or order, a county, city, town, school district governing board or charter school governing body may not require the use of face coverings by students or staff during school hours and on school property.
B. A school district or charter school may not require a student or teacher to receive a vaccine for COVID-19 or to wear a face covering to participate in in-person instruction.
