Jersey CUSD 100

Face masks can cause communication barriers for individuals with a hearing loss because of reduced visual and auditory input.  For younger students, face masks may cause anxiety or uncertainty in the classroom because the masks can prevent facial expressions being seen.  Jersey 100 understands the importance of wearing a face mask and for that reason the district has purchased masks that will allow the staff member’s mouth to be visible.  As students transition back to school, Jersey 100 wants the transition to be positive.  The clear panel face mask is one way the district is trying to accommodate students in the educational setting.
