COVID-19 Mitigation Procedures Update

In light of the decreasing prevalence of the COVID-19 cases in the district, and increasing vaccination numbers throughout the North Texas region, the Venus ISD Board of Trustees has made the following changes to our COVID-19 Mitigation Procedures:

• Face coverings, such as masks and face shields, are now optional at all district facilities and functions.
• If it is determined that a student has been in close contact with a confirmed positive COVID-19 individual, the parent/guardian will be contacted, and the parent/guardian would determine whether or not to quarantine their child. 

The following COVID-19 Mitigation Procedures will be continued through May 28, 2021:

• Continued restriction of non-essential campus visitors
• Continue disinfection and spraying protocols in classrooms and common areas
• Continue the use of hand sanitizer and frequent hand-washing
• Continue temperature checks upon entry

Venus High School Graduation will be held outdoors at Bulldog Stadium.  Masking and distancing are recommended, but will not be required.  There will be no limit on the number of guests in attendance.

The following COVID-19 mitigation measures will be employed for Summer Learning:

• Masking and distancing will not be required
