The school board voted to rescind the mask mandate during last night's session. I have confirmed the formal revocation of the policy effective immediately. We will continue to monitor board meeting minutes to ensure this change remains permanent.

The scale of this response is compelling and I am now preparing a formal summary of these concerns for the next school board meeting. A local news outlet contacted me this morning to discuss our position on these mandates.

Medical and health decisions of children are the sole responsiblity of their parent/guardian, not the school. Children are not at risk and there is no science that shows masks are even effective.

Please rescind the mask mandate. It is not fair to the children and/or staff to endure this horrendous custom, which is compromising everybody's immune system As well, it infringes on our constitutional rights. I urge you, for the safety of these children and school staff to remove this mandate immediately. Thank you!

I feel if adults can attend a high school football game packed in a stadium full of people without masks, then my child should be able to get educated without a mask. These kids need to be able to see teachers faces, peers faces. In kindergarten they are learning sounds of letters and it is so important to see faces.

I totally agree to do away with the mask. I have granddaughters in primary school and both have been wearing their masks as they are supposed to, and the youngest one carries a headache all week....assuming it is from the mask wearing..

Children need to see faces. The physical and psychological harm the masks are doing to children do not outweigh the benefits. The benefits are so minute this shouldn't even be a discussion. RSV in children is on the rise since these mask mandates have come out. Unmask our children before the harm being inflicted cannot be reversed.

The other day, while I waited for my daughter, I watched 15-20 kids walk in 85 degree weather and go to the football field and participate gym with a mask on!! I understand the concern for their safety but this needs to stop.
