Being a parent in comifornia I wish we had someone like desantis. Mask mandate back in effect here despite being over 80 or 85% vaxed in my city includes everyone 2 and over vaxed or not you need a mask. I’m waiting for these morons to close the schools again for another year. If people don’t wake the fuck up more people and states are gonna continue to lose their freedom/freedom of choice
Our schools weren't closed....completely. But, parents had to make a choice whether to use virtual school, regular brick-and-mortar school, or a combination of the two.
Last year, the private school which my kids attended opened 3 weeks late, because of all of the confusion from this virus mess. In the end, the whole school went "cottage" That is, kids attended class twice a week and the parents homeschool their respective children the rest of the time.
Now, it's full steam ahead. The teachers are honoring the wishes of the parents. If they want their kids masked, their kids will remained masked. But, it's not mandatory. Last year, kids had to wear masks in the hallway, in chapel, and at other large assemblies. But, in class, masks were optional. But classes were smaller last year. My son's class had only seven kids (including him).
