The mother of a special education student enrolled in SDSchools kept her son home after Whitehurst-Payne's 'offensive' comments. She explained special education students cannot focus with mask mandates, and need the structure of school to learn.
SAN DIEGO – Monday on KUSI’s Good Morning San Diego, San Diego Unified School District Board President Sharon Whitehurst-Payne made a shocking comment regarding students concerned about their new mask mandate.
Both Richard Barrera and Whitehurst-Payne used California’s arbitrary color-coded tier system as justification for re-implementing an indoor mask mandate. But they conveniently left out the many studies that found the negative consequences of mask mandates to be much more concerning. Learning loss for young students in their social maturity and speech skills can be directly attributed to the mask mandates.
So in adherence to Whitehurst-Payne’s advice, some San Diego Unified students are now staying home and missing school.
