SUSSEX COUNTY, Del.- Students will return to class nine days from now in the Cape Henlopen School District. 

On August 19th, the district’s board voted unanimously that masks are required indoors for students, teachers, and visitors regardless of vaccination status, upholding governor carney’s mandate. 

Bus drivers and their passengers must also wear masks. But COVID-19 Coordinator for the district Dr. LouAnn Hudson says these are not the only mitigation practices that will be present in the schools.

“Every layer can keep our students and staff safer,” Dr. Hudson said. “So we of course are promoting vaccinations and have run several vaccination clinics for our staff and our students since last January and February.”
