Arizona school districts still have the power to enforce individual mask mandates on their campuses. Author: 12 News Updated: 9:32 PM MST April 19, 2021
PHOENIX Gov. Doug Ducey rescinded his mask requirement for Arizona K-12 schools on Monday but allowed districts to create their own policies.
Ducey claimed that the decision came under new guidance from the CDC, but the move has been derided by the state s top educator Kathy Hoffman who said it destabilizes school communities as they end what has arguably been the most challenging year for education.
Masks have consistently been cited as one of the most effective ways to limit the spread of COVID-19 which is primarily spread through coughs and sneezes.
