Washington schools will be following the state's lead on lifting mask requirements starting next week. Details:

The Washington State Department of Health has confirmed that schools, child care, and day camps will follow the rest of the state in lifting mask requirements on March 12.

“As we have since the onset of COVID-19, Seattle Public Schools follows the guidance of Public Health on health and safety,” wrote SPS Superintendent Brent Jones in a news release, who added that continued masking by staff and students is still strongly encouraged. “While Public Health is no longer mandating masks, masking is an individual choice. We won’t tolerate shaming or judging anyone in our schools for wearing a mask or not wearing a mask.

In a jointly released statement, Jennifer Matter, President of SEA, and Uti Hawkins, Bargaining Chair of SEA, described the decision to lift the mask requirement as a “deep disappointment.” The union was scheduled to bargain mask requirements Friday, and they describe the choice to update mask guidelines before that date as tantamount to a violation of their memorandum of understanding with the district.
