Spring break is about over for Geary USD 475 schools, with students going back to class on Monday.

The District has announced via social media that masking will be optional for children in Fort Riley schools. Staff that are fully vaccinated do not need to wear a mask. Adults and staff that are unvaccinated are still required to wear a mask, in accordance with Fort Riley's policies.

Fort Riley also noted that if COVID cases increase significantly, this mask policy may change. 

On March 7th the Board of Education made wearing a face mask optional in off-post schools in Junction City, Milford and Grandview Plaza but masks were still required in on-post schools in order to comply with regulations then in effect on Fort Riley.
