Based on recent CDC guidelines and FCPS guidelines, we will not be requiring masks or distancing this season. We will be supportive of a family's choice to ask their kid(s) to continue to wear a mask if they chose to do so.
Please be aware that we reserve the right to require masks to be worn whenever not actively participating if the risk level changes.
