The Capistrano Unified School District Board of Trustees is opposing a California policy that will require students to wear masks when they return to classrooms.
It passed a resolution on June 23 to send a letter to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), requesting a timely revision of face-covering guidance for schools and school-based programs.
