Virginia has legislated mask-choice for the parents to decide<\/a>.\u00a0 I say good for Youngkin.\u00a0 He has kept faith with his electorate as have the new legislators voted in with him.\u00a0 Sucks being those teachers and school boards who fought this tooth and claw.<\/p>\n

It also establishes that “virtual” learning days (a dreadfully failed experiment) will not count toward state-required instruction days. In-person instruction is mandated. Excellent news.
