We (the parents of Noah's Ark and "Mother's Morning Out") request that St. Stephen's and Noah's ark leadership follow state guidelines issued by Governor Wolf that state masks are recommended, not required, for all students for the 2021-2022 school year.

The mask mandate in Pennsylvania was lifted on June 28, 2021. Mask mandates for all ages and for any school activities are no longer required.

We believe parents/families should be able to perform their own risk assessment, considering physical, mental, and psychological risks and benefits for their children when it comes to all medical decisions, including masking.

We THANK YOU for a healthy and successful MASK OPTIONAL 2021 Summer program at Mother's Morning Out.

By signing this petition, we officially and respectfully request that you continue to make face-coverings optional for all children at Noah's Ark and Mother's Morning Out.
