Jones County

Back on August 27th, the board of education voted that only students in grades 6-12 would have to wear masks, though it was strongly recommended that students in K-5 wear them.

Students in the district started returning to school four days a week, with Wednesdays reserved for online learning and building cleaning.

Jones County confirmed five COVID-19-related deaths before school is scheduled to begin again.

The Jones County school board voted unanimously for Plan B, which mixes two days of in-person classes and three days of online classes.
