California Mask Mandate for Schools Ends
Mask Survey
by Matt Marquez
As of March 11, 2022, at 11:59 pm, Governor Davis repealed the mask mandate for public schools. Students will no longer be ordered to wear a mask, rather, they have the choice to continue to don the mask or remove it. The Owlet asked a select group of freshmen, sophomore, junior, and senior classes to answer one simple question: Will you continue to wear a mask at school? Here are the results.
