After careful consideration of the latest health directive from the Shelby County Health Department regarding the use of facial coverings, Bodine School has decided to lift the mask requirement for this year’s Summer Reading Program.
The current local guidelines as of May 15, 2021, allow for relaxed mask rules in Shelby County. The mandate also allows for schools and impacted businesses to enforce their own regulations regarding facial coverings. Faculty and students are welcome to wear a mask during the program if preferred, but they will not be required to do so. The majority of our Faculty and Staff have been fully vaccinated.
Additionally, we will continue sanitization efforts and other COVID-19 related precautions despite the lifting of our mask requirement.

Our Reopening Task Force (RTF) has developed a plan and will continue to oversee actions needed to safely reopen Bodine School while minimizing adverse impact on public health as well as ongoing changes surrounding COVID-19. We share your enthusiasm for reopening this fall with prudent safeguard for our Bodine community. The final page of this Reopening Plan is the Bodine School Health & Wellness Pledge required for the 2020-2021 school year. Please return the signed form to the school no later than August 5, 2020. We look forward to welcoming students on campus on August 10. As always, we will remain communicative and provide you with more information if and when needed as the COVID-19 situation evolves. If you have any questions, please contact communications@bodineschool.org
