Reply to comment by ZebZ in Philadelphia School District To Require Masks For 10 Days After Winter Break by ZebZ

It's not a few days, it's 10 days.

This should be a parental choice matter, I love my 8 year old special needs daughter more than I love anything in the world. Wearing a mask does more harm than good for my daughter.

10 days out of a 180-day school year. Students will have 94.5% of the school year without a mask.

Not everyone is going to love or benefit from every policy. They have to be made to benefit the staff and student body as a whole, and this is a clear benefit. Parents of kids who need exceptions can always work with the school administrators to accommodate them under the ADA.

School boards are elected bodies. If you don't like how a district is run, do something about it.
