Wiscasset school districts are torturing their students by forcing them to wear masks every day at school. Wearing a mask impacts our day-to-day life in school with our learning experiences. Masks also cause stress to our social life in school because we are always getting scolded for being too close together. Masks are making students in Wiscasset middle-high feel like animals. 

I've gone around my school asking fellow students what makes make them feel like and the best way and the most common way I've heard it described is like putting a dog muzzle on us all day long for 6 hours and being followed around and reprimanded when trying to get a fast not in 30-second mask break during school. This is the reality for every student at the Wiscasset school district. Think of how this is affecting elementary school kids if that is what high schoolers are feeling like. they cant be kids they can't play tag or run around everything without being 6 feet. The argument may be made that the kids are not being made to be six feet but most teachers at the elementary school are being made to be 6 feet when outside without a mask which is not right and 3 feet inside with masks is also not in the policy.  3 out of 5 teachers all disagree with the masks but comply. 

Masks impact our learning big time. no big group work really unless online. 90% of work is online so at least 3 out of 6 hours a day staring at a screen and typing. masks make it hard to talk therefore making it hard to hear the person talking. 

Take a second and look at all this info and do some research do you really wanna be another number? We as Wiscasset school students need to fight back against the admission forcing us to do inhumane things and treating us like we are nothing but animals. So please take a second and sign the petition to help not only yourself but the whole school fight against these inhumane rules.
