Masks No Longer Required on School Buses
-
March 1, 2022
From the Office of the Superintendent
Due to a change in the federal order that requires masks to be worn on public transportation, school buses are no longer included in the requirement. Therefore, masks are no longer required to be worn on Tuscaloosa County School System school buses. This is effective immediately. If a student or staff member chooses to wear a mask while on the bus, they are certainly allowed to do so.
