A school board in Texas has added masks to their dress code – seemingly circumventing Governor Greg Abbott's ban on new COVID-19 restrictions. Face coverings are now part of the dress code for students in the the Paris Independent School District.
In a statement about its amended dress code, the school district board said it believes the "dress code can be used to mitigate communicable health issues, and therefore has amended the PISD dress code to protect our students and employees."

The leftists have also cooked up some kooky lawsuit claiming the mask ban is a federal discrimination violation against kids with disabilities. WTF.

Does the dress code make girls wear jocks, and the boys wear bras?
If not, it is not an unbiased dress code, and none of it applies.

Ask them if their social justice curriculum causes more violence or less violence.

Face it, if you want to conveniently meet with a bunch of communists, don’t call the American Communist Party.
Call your county school board.

Arrest them. Bankrupt them in court.
99% of teachers are useless idiots.

> Call your county school board.Then let the phone ring, and ring, and ring since they don't answer calls from regular people.
Show up in person instead, be ultra nice, and take video of everything as protection.

I’ll NEVER understand our side. We act ‘confused’, ‘surprised’, ‘mad’, or whatever when the schools do things like this.
I guess I’ll go to my grave with something like 90% of conservatives thinking that government schools answer to them (the parents).
Well, quick update: They DO NOT. They answer to the people who pay them, and that is the government.

If you could prove that masks help I would be wearing one….but you can’t and all the evidence of the last year says you can’t.

Ya gotta admit, it's a pretty inventive way of getting around Abbott's order. Yes it is very inventive, because most conservatives are for dress codes in schools.
