SAN DIEGO
California is still requiring masks for everyone in K-12 schools, but it is leaving it up to educators to decide how to enforce that rule a move that has sown confusion and complaints from San Diego superintendents and parents.
At least one local school district, Alpine Union, is choosing to make masks optional for students and staff this fall.
“I take the tack that I represent my community, and my community’s adamant about choice,” Alpine Supt. Rich Newman said.
Three other districts Poway, Vista and Carlsbad Unified are urging the state to change its policy to allow fully vaccinated people the choice of wearing a mask at school.
