Daviscourt reported that students will refuse to return to class until the mask mandates for students are lifted. Many states, including New Jersey, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Virginia, Oregon and New York have lifted mask mandates, though in New York and California those mandates are still in place for school children.
One student, who refused to mask at school, said that she was threatened with suspension if she didn’t either leave or don a face mask.
The scene at Washougal High School where students are holding the line. They said that they won’t be returning to class until the mask mandate is lifted. They question why WA is one of the last state’s in the country to do away with this policy. pic.twitter.com/A0rfYLeShr
