Florida investigating school districts that defied ban on mask mandates.

Less than 24 hours before the first day of school, the Leon County School Board moved to mandate to masks for pre-K-12 but included a parental exemption.Florida's education commissioner told the leaders of three school districts this week that he's investigating them for"non-compliance" after they defied state rules by refusing to let parents opt out of mask requirements for their children.

"There is no room for error or leniency when it comes to ensuring compliance with policies that allow parents and guardians to make health and educational choices for their children," Corcoran wrote.In a response to the commissioner, Carlee Simon and Leanetta McNealy, the Alachua superintendent and school board chair, wrote in a letter that the order to require opt-outs from masks was"an extremely inappropriate use of state authority.

"I personally can't be bullied into parochial self-interest to make a decision where I put myself ahead of the lives of other people," Osgood said in the interview, which aired Wednesday."There is no monetary value that you can put on somebody's life." As punishment, the state"could move to withhold the salary of the district superintendent or school board members," Gov. Ron DeSantis' press secretary, Christina Pushaw, said Monday.
