The following report is from WSBT 22:
Students in Broken Bow, Oklahoma will now either have to call their parents or pay the school if they forget their masks at home.
Rector Johnson Middle School and Broken Bow High School posted on Facebook Monday letting parents know if their student comes to school without a mask, they could have to pay $1.
RJMS said their students attend several classes in which they must wear a mask which was approved by the school board several months ago.
Since then, the school has been issuing reusable masks to students but now their resources have been depleted.
One teacher at the high school said the school had been going through approximately 100 reusable masks a day.
It has also been reported that students were taking the masks and throwing them in the trash after school.
The school is now selling masks for $1 to students who forget their masks at home.
If the student does not have $1 they will be asked to call their parents to bring them either a mask or $1.
Parents are being asked to remind their children every morning to bring their masks to school.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
These kids need to all band together and all show up without masks. That will not happen, but people need to start standing up to this. Eventually more and more pockets of resistance from the youth will stand up to this.
And the fact that they are making them pay for them is a joke too. We’ve all been through public schooling: it’s not like these students are carrying cash on them. So, what happens if they have no mask and no money? Do they get taken to the makeshift jail in the nurse’s office?
