Glenbard West High School Principal Peter Monaghan was caught on camera maskless, in a throng of maskless fans over the weekend at the Wintrust Arena. But he is still taking a hard line on masks with students, even after a downstate judge declared the state's mask mandate "null and void."
Lombard School District 44, which includes eight schools and 3,020 students, is now mask-optional.The announcement came Saturday in an email to parents by District Superintendent Ted Stec, in response to a Sangamon County court ruling late Friday that declared Gov. J.B. Pritzker's school student mask requirement "null and void."
