Edgewood ISD Response to Latest Health Directive

On August 10, 2021, due to the threat of the widely circulating and highly contagious Delta
variant, the Local Health Authority for Bexar County and the City of San Antonio issued
a Health Directive mandating the use of face-covering/masks in all Bexar County public
schools from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade, effective immediately.

The Edgewood Independent School District supports the newly administered Health
Directive and will abide by the directive for its duration. Effective Wednesday, August 11,
2021, all students, staff, and district visitors will be required to wear face-
coverings/masks while in all district buildings.

Edgewood I.S.D. is committed to the safety and security of all students, employees, and
community members and will take every available measure to ensure appropriate
precautions are put into place in our schools. The District appreciates the understanding
and cooperation of all stakeholders as we endeavor to keep our students and staff safe.
