“Since the beginning of school, I learned that essentially if you brought a lunch from home, you were eating outside,” said Carissa Palm, the mother of a third-grader at the school.

I just saw something from the state department of education announcing that mandatory masking was their “best practice” for reducing COVID. Apparently they’re unaware of the psychological and learning damage this has been shown to do, as well as of the reality that kids generally don’t tend to get COVID badly, don’t transmit it well, and the like.
Not much printable I can say about this policy, to put it mildly.
