We need to end the school mandate to wear masks for so many more reasons than I can list as the disadvantages outway the benefits. 

Kids are now getting school suspension for their mask falling below their nose. This is all because of the mask mandate NY State Governor Kathy Hochul put in place. This is unacceptable & cannot be tolerated anymore.

Instead of teaching our kids, school staff has to take all their time disciplining our children for not wearing their mask 100% accurately.

This is a crucial time for our kids learning & taking them out of class is not right for so many reasons. These kids are OUR future & the NYS Governor is ruining it.

In addition, it's not good for kids to wear masks all day every day. Kids are not the cleanest. These masks can become wet and dirty then carry harmful bacteria and fungus while limiting the flow of oxygen. Our kids need oxygen to learn & function at their fullest. 

Regarding their social needs, when kids wear masks they cannot see each others expressions. This is limiting their socialization, especially if the kids are shy. I've definitely seen an impact on my kids. 

You & I both know there's 1000 more reasons so please sign & share this petition. Thank you!

THE MASK MANDATE MUST END!!!
