School Board Votes to Institute Mask Mandate and Update Quarantine Guidelines

by

Due to the rising COVID cases in the community, the Exeter Township Board of School Directors met tonight to make changes to the District's Health & Safety Plan. Tonight, they approved two motions, which go into effect tomorrow, January 3, 2022, when all students and staff return to school. They are as follows:
  • All students, staff and visitors must wear masks inside school buildings from Monday, January 3rd through at least Wednesday, January 19th.
  • They updated quarantine guidelines to align with CDC recommendations.
The District will be updating its Health & Safety Plan and FAQs to reflect these changes, which will be available on its website at www.exetersd.org/covid.

Exeter Launches New District Website

Featuring a news-forward focus, a clean design and community-centered content, the District launched a new website this month at the URL-friendly www.exetersd.org to refresh its online presence. New features include a day-of-the-week widget to help parents and students remember the cycle day, a consistent menu from school-to-school, a news-centered splash page with news, events and social media/ParentSquare feeds, a Community Bulletin Board for local organizations to post their registrations and events, and a grade/department-centered fly-out directory on each school's page to make it easier for you to find teachers and staff. Please make sure you click on the SCHOOLS tab to check out your school's respective site!

We're continuing to make adjustments to our mobile-friendly version and have a few other tweaks/improvements in the works, but we're eager to hear your feedback or suggestions! Please feel free to email communications@nullexetersd.org with features you'd like to see, which may be included in a future update!

Mask Update

by

Dear Exeter Families,

The Pennsylvania State Supreme Court struck down Pennsylvania’s school mask mandate yesterday, effectively ending masking requirements in PA public schools. At this time, the Exeter Township Board of School Directors has mandated that staff and students continue to wear masks until December 15th. On Wednesday, December 15th, staff, students and visitors may choose to wear or not wear masks in all school buildings. The District will continue to ask students who are visiting the school nurse to wear a  mask, and will provide one if requested. Masks will continue to be required to be worn on school buses as per federal TSA requirements. 

At a future date, the government or the Board of School Directors could reimpose masking requirements. Please continue to monitor school communication for updates.

Thank you for your continued cooperation.
