COVID - 19 Plan:

District 196 COVID-19 Operational PlanDistrict 196 is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for each employee, student, parent and visitor to our buildings. Our primary focus continues to be the education of our students, while integrating health and safety responses into our existing pre-pandemic public health support. Face masks are required indoors in all District 196 buildings for anyone age 2 and older, regardless of vaccination status. The district plan uses the CDC’s transmission matrix to determine when face masks will be required or recommended based on the Dakota County seven-day case rate per 100,000 residents. Please note: Our early childhood staff will work with families to support our youngest learners in wearing a mask as they are able.
