Governor Brown Urges School Districts To Follow Mask Requirement

(Salem, OR)  --  Governor Kate Brown is urging school district leaders around the state to follow the mask requirement for K through 12 schools.  Brown says some administrators plan to ignore state law.  Several school boards have passed or are considering resolutions opposing the mask requirement.  Brown says in one district, a superintendent encouraged parents to make false claims that their children needed an exemption under the Americans with Disabilities Act.  Brown says wearing masks is the best way to prevent a COVID-19 outbreak and keep students in school.
