So… a month from now the kinds at MPS might be able to take their masks off. Maybe. If the teachers don’t bully them into “opting” to wear it anyway. This is a perfect example of the screwed up priorities of MPS.
MILWAUKEE (March 24, 2022) – Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) has announced that masks will be optional for students and staff in school buildings. The new policy will take effect Monday, April 18, 2022. The decision was made after a vote by the Milwaukee Board of School Directors during their monthly board meeting on Thursday, March 24, 2022.
The new mask policy is a change from the original mandate that required masks be worn in all MPS school buildings to help reduce the spread of COVID-19. The district does have the option to revert back to a mandatory mask policy if it is determined that there is a significant transmission of the virus within the city of Milwaukee and/or the school district. Masks will continue to be available for students and staff in school buildings.
So, what magical thing has happened that today, that you still need a mask and after April 18th, you don’t?
Just more evidence the masking is about power and politics rather than science.
And look for MPS to keep the mask mandate before the 18th because if the new variant that is slightly spreading across the world
MPS….child abuse optional…
The Nooooz channels have managed to find parents who are CONVINCED that masks are REQUIRED. Would be interesting to know how many parents they had to go through to find them.
In Waukesha district, perhaps 1 of 50 kids are wearing masks. Few, if any, teachers wear them.
