What a heartless decision from the Billings School District 2 school board & superintendent. Here's what they're telling a girl with Down Syndrome in Billings.
All four pro-parent candidates for Billings' School District 2 will be speaking at a luncheon this Wednesday hosted by the Yellowstone County Republican Women.
Billings High School Students Plan Mask Mandate Walkout
Update 3/19/21 I spoke with one of the two students that started the planned mask mandate walkout at the high schools in School District 2. She told me that she wasn t sure how many students participated overall and that most kids thought that they could just go home instead of going to their next class, and that about ten of them stayed. She also said that the administration (at least at her school) told them they needed to go back to class. She further said that she listened to a few of her teachers and that they all thought that it was a dumb idea. She and the friend that helped her to start the process decided that they are going to get a group of students and go to a school board meeting and present their concerns about the mask mandate and see what happens. She has promised to keep me in the loop on the progress and what the school board says if they have an opportunity to meet with them.
