Mask mandates are back for SDSchools students. For students who feel uncomfortable wearing a mask, SDUSD President Sharon Whitehurst-Payne suggests not returning to school at all. Full Interview:

SAN DIEGO – The San Diego Unified School District is requiring indoor masking starting Monday, a result of San Diego County entering the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s high COVID-19 transmission level last week.

Monday on Good Evening San Diego, San Diego Unified Board President Dr. Sharon Whitehurst-Payne further defended the district’s policy, using the arbitrary color-coded tier system as justification for masking healthy children. She explained, “unfortunately that’s what happened here.” In the Fall, students who do not want to adhere to the mask mandate will have the choice of remote learning, something Whitehurst-Payne described as a good option, but many parents feel strongly that their student should not have to participate in remote learning.
