With 1,100 students currently battling COVID-19 in Plano ISD, there were pleas Tuesday night to require face masks. But also pleas not to.

– With 1,100 students currently battling COVID-19 in Plano ISD, there were pleas Tuesday night, Jan. 11 to require face masks.

“Even just today there are so many teachers, five teachers in our own science department that are out with COVID and they don’t have enough substitutes and so we were crammed into a common area,” said Plano East Senior High student Simon Salinas.“I feel very emotional when I walk down a hallway and see no one wearing a mask,” he said. “It’s impacted a big part of my life and I don’t want it to impact anyone else’s.

“When they had to wear a mask they came home crying because of headaches and they couldn’t breathe very well,” said Weadon. “I promised them they would never wear a mask again once we got rid of the mandate.”

Phil Murphy says the state's mandate for masks as a COVID-19 precaution in schools and daycares will remain in effect despite a looming expiration of the requirement.
