The use of masks in Birmingham diocese schools should be completely optional and at the discretion of parents. There are risks to be considered, and diocesan authority should not supersede that of parents.
The focus should instead be on individual responsibility and discernment through prayer and reflection.
Recommendations by any public or private health organization regarding masks or quarantines should not be treated as if they are mandates, or presented as such.

Margaret Dubose and the diocese should be ashamed for how they are treating the families who choose Catholic education. The lack of communication and transparency on her decision making process is totally unacceptable. The data does not merit the extreme measures she continues to take with our children.
