Police in Summit are encouraging elementary, middle, and high school students to wear masks by launching the Wear a Mask rewards campaign.

In partnership with Summit Downtown Inc., police are giving out 100 $5 gift cards to kids who wear their masks properly -- over their mouth and nose.

The program starts today, and will run until the gift cards are gone.

If the program is successful, it may be continued into the fall.
