Wayne County health officials on Friday, Aug. 27, issued an order mandating local school districts to require students and school staff to wear a face mask while in school and during school-sponsored indoor events, regardless of vaccination status.
The order takes effect immediately and applies to visitors at public, private and parochial educational settings, including daycare centers, throughout Wayne County.
The order affects about 290,000 students — 226,000 students across 33 school districts and 108 public school academies serving 64,000 students as well as hundreds of school employees.
