DENVER (AP) — A federal judge issued a restraining order against a suburban Denver county’s policy allowing parents to opt their children out of a mask mandate at school, finding the rule violates the rights of students with disabilities who are vulnerable to COVID-19.
U.S. District Judge John L. Kane on Tuesday called the Douglas County Board of Health order that allowed parents to opt their children out of mask-wearing a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which guarantees equal access to education for all.
Kane’s order came after the Douglas County School District filed a federal lawsuit challenging the Board of Health order on behalf of nine students with disabilities, The Denver Post reported. The district argued that a lack of universal masking placed those students at high risk of severe disease.
It also challenged a relaxation of quarantine rules for students suspected of having the coronavirus.

Jimmy Carter judge…
Yes parents can exempt their children from masks. Homeschool or private school. Parents can do what they want.
Defund public education. Get your kids out.
Any right that government can suspend during an emergency never was a right. It was a privilege that Government reluctantly allowed you to have.
Well that’s a reach. That could be used to force absolutely every person in America to wear a mask from now on, even without covid.
McAuliffe approves.
WHat about violating the rights of disabled students with autism or deafness, that MUST see other people's mouths, teeth, facial expressions and smiles?
Exactly.
Home school people. Public school is child abuse.
First of all, judge, lets examine the science that shows that kids infect kids….
Then the science of masking…
“Yes parents can exempt their children from masks. Homeschool or private school.”
...absolutely correct. Public schools are nothing more than day care for most parents. Take control of your kids future. Why do people bother having them.
A REAL doctor, not a judge or politician or movie star was on radio last week and she said that masks hold in the very pathogens your lungs worked so hard to expel, so you can breathe them back in again and again....
A M E N !!!!
not wearing a mask doesn’t prevent anyone from coming to school and getting an education
never has, never will
That sure shows it all!
the historical solution, for this and any other at risk person,
is to have the at-risk person wear a mask or whatever protectice gear was deemed to help them
not make everyone else wear protective gear JUST FOR THEM
It all started with those f’n peanut kids...
yes
because you know they’d demand an incredibly high bar of prooffrom those that don’t go along with TPTB’s agendas
