Roughly three out of four Bexar County parents say schools should continue to enforce masks while they are inside the classroom, according to a new Bexar Facts-KSAT-San Antonio Report poll released this week.
According to the poll, 73% of likely voters with children under 19 either “strongly agreed” or “somewhat agreed” with a continued classroom face mask policy. Another 25% said they disagreed with mandating masks in classrooms.
San Antonio-area school districts had to make their choice following Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s announcement that the statewide mask mandate would end on March 10. Since that time, each school district has updated their requirements for students and teachers for the remainder of the school year. A list of the district’s decisions can be found on KSAT.com here.
