Bullitt County students return to in-person learning on Jan. 19, 2021

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Bullitt County Public Schools won't require masks when the school year begins in August.

The school district released its guidelines to parents on Friday. 

In a letter, Bullitt County Schools superintendent Dr. Jesse Bacon said it's recommended for students and staff members not fully vaccinated to wear a mask, but no one will be asked if they're vaccinated.

For students who aren't vaccinated, it's possible they will have to quarantine if it's determined they've been exposed to COVID-19.

Bullitt County Public Schools hosts its first day of classes on Aug. 10 for the 2021-22 academic year.
