Many districts are still deciding whether to require masks as the first day of school nears.
In Rockland County, Nyack and Clarkstown are both are implementing universal masking.
Pearl River and North Rockland are still waiting to see what happens the next few weeks with the delta variant and COVID-19 cases.
The decision now falls to districts after the state last week confirmed they will not issue any guidance on reopening school and instead instruct districts to develop their own in-person learning plans while following guidance from the CDC.
