Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser has confirmed that her city is not planning to allow remote learning for unvaccinated students, who will be blocked out of their classrooms when the new school year starts next week.

Under the city’s latest school attendance policy, children aged 12 years and older must show proof of COVID-19 vaccination within the first 20 days of the new school year to continue learning in person. The policy applies to all public, private, and independent schools.
