MFCS Mask Mandate Update
In accordance with New Jersey Governor Murphy’s announcement of the lifting of the Universal School Mask Mandate on March 7, MFCS continues to adjust measures based on the latest health guidance and best practices. Beginning April-30 MFCS will lift on campus mask requirements making the wearing of masks (face coverings) while on campus optional. Although the wearing of masks on campus is now optional, MFCS highly recommends that all individuals continue to wear their mask while on campus. The individual decision to choose to continue to wear a mask is a personal one that may be based upon a number of factors. Those who wish to wear masks on campus are encouraged to do so.
