WASHINGTON - School districts across America have an
important decision to make before fall school begins: Will students be required
to wear masks?
In Wichita, in the state of Kansas, public school students
will be able to do without masks when school begins. Detroit public schools
will likely require them among students who are not vaccinated. In Pittsburgh,
the use of masks is likely to be required regardless of vaccination status. And
in some states, schools cannot enforce a face covering under any circumstances.
Deep political divisions over the outbreak have complicated
decisions across the country. In some conservative states, lawmakers have
banned districts from requiring the use of masks despite protests from health
professionals. Schools are weighing a variety of plans to manage high school
classrooms, filled with vaccinated and unvaccinated students.
