It gives the st.

Joseph school district a little bit more room to operate... school district officials saying the district already follows the mask mandate..

In fact... volleyball... been competing in masks this season... so the district already knew a little bit about how indoor sports might work this winter... but with this exception for active competitors in basketball and wrestling..
