The Paterson school district surveyed parents and employees and a majority called for keeping the school mask requirement.

during the past month, the decision is more complicated in large cities such as Paterson.

due to the pandemic and spent nearly $20 million on improving air filtration and other safety measures.Shafer told the board that Elizabeth and Jersey City, the second and third-largest districts, have yet to announce a decision.“I’d just love to get back to some sense of normalcy,” board member Vincent Arrington said.

“In my opinion, it’s the safe way to go,” she said. “We want to protect our children and staff. I think it’s very appropriate.” Arrington, though, said additional time should have been provided to parents to respond to the survey, which was sent to them via email Feb. 14, two days before the meeting.“I wish we could have gotten a larger sample of data from parents. Just seems a little bit low, that number,” Arrington said of the responses.

It needs to end NOW !!!!

Absolutely NO SCIENTIFIC reason to mandatory mask kids NJ Media is to lazy to research. All real data below with all links NJ Media DOESN’T RESEARCH AND CHALLENGE SCHOOL UNIONS LOGIC

Good for him, we not out of the woods from covid yet.

What's amazing is these kids leave school for the day and take their mask off. Watch them leave school as soon as they leave the school ground they rip those masks off. They go out with friends go to the store or the mall unmasked. Do we need these draconian rules

The majority of her district’s teachers and parents want to continue the mask requirement, so why question it?

It's done we need to get back To normal. Kids are outside, home o. Weekend no mask. Mask off starting March 7th can't wait. We can breathe again

Because the”science” says once the flowers bloom the virus dies?

Or how about until school is out for the summer that’s a brilliant idea 💡

What a shock. Another shameless liberal doing the wrong thing for the kids. Who would have thunk it? You can't retire soon enough.

Funny how our inner city residents are afraid of Republicans taking their freedoms but gladly give them up to Democrats with no logic or facts backing up the decisions. It is mind boggling. Stop being scared and think.

Kids don't where them anywhere else, no point ! Doesn't help anything plus they aren't getting seriously Ill....

Is understandable that caution is needed but let's face reality was needed is vaccines to be done state wide and those that won't should be made to leave the state or this will never end and most likely once a year shot like the flu

My kid’s done March 7.

Hmm these people need to be removed

He can EAD we already announce it in my town to be mask free, he is no health expert.

Good for him! So many get togethers during the spring break and vacations. Chances of the numbers going up is a probability. Smart thinking

Tell him he should follow the science

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Of coarse these are as bad as the government. NJ sucks. Destroying are kids every day criminal.

Fire them! That’s not the science. I want my scrotum gargled twice a day. How does it feel to want!

He should soak his head

Go away

Literally no science that masks in school do anything but make teachers “feel” better

The rest of the world has accepted COVID as endemic and is removing restrictions. We the United States who normally leads the world has fallen by the way side. We no longer follow actual medical science, but the science of politicians

Didn't anyone watch the Superbowl or any other event both indoor or out? Why are you still masking kids show your stats of number of children and teachers getting cvd who are otherwise healthy. Endemic or Mental Health Crisis

Let the parents decide if their child needs to wear a mask! Some will continue to wear one for one reason or another. Stop the mandates!

The higher their education the stupider they become.

As it should be

Just another 🤡

It's likely there is a more statistical danger for a child simply living in Paterson than from catching Covid.

Man gtfoh with this shit. Tell him to reduce his 6 figure salary and hide under his mattress.

The 'acting' super who is retiring at the end of the year? She don't even live in Paterson. Why she got a job in Paterson

He obviously knows what's best for the kids as he serves them this for a school lunch.

👍

Smart. Kids under 5 are still not able to get vaccinated. Let's see what happens March 7th.

Vaccines are readily available, masks outside of test fitted N95 have been shown not to work, if you need a school board to help you make health decisions you need to reassess where you get you health information.

Psychopath

Good 🥇
