Daily News | A Camden school reflects on a full year with mandatory masks: ‘We’re used to it’
ALEJANDRO A. ALVAREZ / Staff PhotographerFirst grader Khamoni Davis-Victor kept her face mask tucked under her chin as she munched on lunch Wednesday in the cafeteria at Yorkship Elementary School in Camden.
Camden is believed to be the only South Jersey district that kept the mask rule in place after Gov. Phil Murphy lifted the state requirement in March. Newark, the state’s largest school system, also kept the mask mandate, while Trenton reinstated it last week. “With reported positive COVID-19 cases on the rise, I am so glad that here at the Camden City School District, we made the right decision to stay the course and continue masking,” McCombs said in a statement. “Our top priority is always to keep our students safe so we will continue to put them first in our decision-making.”
”We’re used to it. We’ve been wearing them,” Murray said. “We have not had a lot of pushback at all.”
