LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - Fayette County Public Schools will no longer require temperature checks for students on the school bus or when entering the building.

Families still need to check for symptoms, including a fever, and keep students home if they’re sick.

Temperatures will still be taken for children who show symptoms while at school.
