In consideration of the masking mandate for all schools, Iroquois students will be required to wear a face-covering when inside the school building. A face covering means a covering of the nose and mouth that is secured to the head with ties, straps, or loops over the ears or wrapped around the lower face. It must completely cover the nose and mouth. Face shields are NOT an acceptable face-covering due to the open spaces that do not protect against the spreading of respiratory droplets. The only exemptions in place for public schools are: particular medical conditions, performing tasks when a mask would cause an unsafe condition, inability to remove a mask without assistance, those younger than two, anyone participating in a sport or certain other activities such as playing musical instruments. Erie County has rescinded religious exemption of indoor masking. Thank you and we appreciate your help in following state and local guidelines on masking.

We would like to extend our booster program to include all band member grownups from 5th grade through 12th grade to support the entire program. We hope to see you there! Go Braves!
