Parents, Staff, Students, Community:
Fort Thomas Unified School District wants to acknowledge the new mask mandate that was just approved during the San Carlos Apache Tribe Council Meeting today, August 3, 2021. Fort Thomas Unified School District is in a unique position as we serve students that reside on and off tribal lands. We are working to ensure all students are able to access free and appropriate education that is safe and secure during this time.
Due to the new mask mandate on the San Carlos Tribe lands, all students and employees will comply with the mask mandate while on tribal lands. This includes travel to and from school. However, due state law, once a student or employee is off tribal lands, masks will be recommended, but cannot be mandatory.
Please keep in mind, anyone student or employee that chooses to wear a mask no matter where they are, is welcome and encouraged to do so.
