Ravenna schools issue mask mandate as Covid disrupts Portage County learning

- Lyndsey Brennan

The Ravenna School Board voted unanimously Monday to mandate masks for all students and staff, regardless of vaccination status. The mask mandate took effect Wednesday.

Ravenna became the third school district in the county to require masks, after Kent City Schools and Bio-Med Science Academy updated their policies earlier this month. Combined, 6,404 Portage County students are now covered by school mask mandates.
