Masking and other COVID-19 policies at Round will see some changes as of Feb. 20 as reported cases fall in the area.

An announcement shared with district parents Feb. 17 via email states that due to falling local case reports, masks will be strongly recommended on RRISD campuses; they had previously been required. Visitors will also be allowed back on campus at the discretion of the respective principal.

Other COVID-19 measures, such as the notification of confirmed cases, daily COVID-19 dashboard updates, hand-washing, social distancing when possible, enhanced air filtration and the closure of classes with evidence of a spread of cases will remain in place in order to maintain low case counts.
