Masking in schools is key to in-person learningWe want to get back to school and be with our students in person. But to make sure that schools stay open for in-person instruction, we need to follow the scientific and medical guidance to stem the spread of COVID-19 in schools. That is why PSEA released a public statement calling on all K-12 schools to follow the CDC’s guidance and require all students and staff in school buildings to wear masks. In states with lax mask rules and high COVID-19 case counts, we’re seeing the exact kind of news that we don’t want to see in Pennsylvania. We can avoid that here if we make the right decisions. |
