Special to the State Gazette

The Dyer County School System announced Thursday afternoon that all schools, with the exception of Dyer County High School, would be under Phase 3 guidelines next week, November 2-6, 2020. DCHS will operate under Phase 2 guidelines.

Additionally, with the county-wide mask mandate in effect, for the safety of students and staff, middle and high school students will wear face coverings in areas where social distancing cannot be practiced. Due to the inability to social distance on the bus, all bus riders will wear a mask while on the bus.

Students who cannot wear a mask due to medical conditions will be accommodated.
