Catholic Schools Week Supplement

Safety: the priority of every Catholic school during the pandemic

Masks are one of the many safety precautions that Catholic schools have taken during this school year to protect students and educators from COVID-19 while they are in the classroom.

Readers of this Catholic Schools Week Supplement will notice that some photos featured in this special section are displayed showing teachers and students not wearing masks. Most of these such photos were taken in a previous school year and are featured here to show the interactions of a Catholic school community in a “normal” year. A few of these such photos were taken this year while other safety precautions were in place, such as safety dividers between students’ desks.

The safety of everyone involved in a school community is the priority of every Catholic school in the archdiocese, according to Mary McCoy, interim superintendent of Catholic schools in the archdiocese. †
