To Whom This May Concern:

This petition represents concerned parents, students, and other members of the St. Thomas More Catholic School Community (“STM”) who are against STM’s decision for our children to wear masks at school.

On behalf of the parents and individuals who signed this petition, we disagree with the decision for children, of any grade, to be required to wear masks during school. Parents should be allowed to exercise their right to make their own health decisions for their families. Many studies have shown that masks have been proven to preserve bacteria much more effectively than they are able to prevent the intrusion of a virus.

Children are not the vulnerable population and parents should make the appropriate decisions based on their own needs.

The petitioners below urge the STM community leaders to make the necessary decisions to protect the liberties and freedom afforded to us by our constitution and being a parochial school.

Please forward to those who are interested in supporting parents to make their own health decisions on behalf of their family.

I have been hearing from so many of you who feel sidelined by these mandates and it confirms that we are not alone in wanting autonomy over our children's health. We are currently working on a formal letter to present our concerns directly to the school leadership.

Seeing this kind of momentum feels like a weight lifting off my shoulders because it reminds me that I am not alone in wanting the best for my kids. It is heartening to see so many families at our school coming together to defend our right to choose what is right for our own homes.

Our children are being used as pawns by making them wear a mask that does not work (fact not opinion); because that’s what others are doing, taking the easy road to not stand out, abide by arbitrary- ever moving rules, and virtue signal to those it makes feel better. This should be a choice for parents to make for their own children.

My kids have had enough of these face coverings. Let parents decide what is healthy for their own family its not the schools job to parent our kids.

STOP THE MASK MANDATES NOW. The science just isnt there and my kid hates wearing it all day in class.

All the sudden everyone is “pro-choice” when it comes to life issues I see. MY BODY MY CHOICE

No masks for children who are healthy or have had the shot. Ones who have diseases should wear masks.

People should have a choice.
