The Tennessee Schools for the Deaf is asking for volunteers to help to create masks with clear shields that will help students and staff see mouthing.

School officials say they have a plan for mask use following Centers for Disease Control and county guidelines but it is important to have visual access for American Sign Language grammar.

Fabric can be any color or print free of inappropriate graphics or images.
