COVID: BerkeleyUnified reinstates indoor mask mandate through end of school year over rising cases.
, Superintendent Brent Stephens said the mask mandate comes following a recommendation from city's health officer Dr. Lisa Hernandez.
Under the order, all people in schools or district facilities will be required to mask while indoors. Masking will also be required at indoor school events, including indoor graduation ceremonies that take place off campus. The increase in COVID-19 cases is also leading to increased teacher absences. According to Stephens, only about 50% of teachers' absences have been filled by substitute teachers, leading to administrators working in classrooms and other teachers filling in for their colleagues.
