Acting Superintendent's Update

Wednesday, February 16, 2022

Dear North Brunswick Staff and Families,

Governor Murphy has announced that Executive Order # 251 requiring masks in schools would end on March 7, 2022, following a significant decline in cases, transmission rates, and hospitalizations, as well as an increase in vaccination rates.  On that date, the decision to require masks reverts back to each district to determine what is best for their community.  

Within North Brunswick Township Schools, there has been a steady decrease in the number of positive COVID cases since the middle of January.  Therefore, with the expiration of Executive Order # 251, on March 7, 2022,  wearing a mask IN SCHOOL will be OPTIONAL for all students and staff.   Until the mandate is lifted on March 7, the current school mask requirement remains in place.  MORE
