Then please, please continue to not wear a mask. Get covid. Need hospitalization. Put your family and friends through it. Make the hospital staff issues even worse. Eventually die. Thin the heard

Actually, he should sue the individuals that make this decision, not the schools. The students and the taxpayers should not be punished for the actions of other peoples stupidity.

Parental rights and the students rights are at stake. No school board member has the right over legislators to force this. Missouri’s emergency is over. The alarmists need to start moving on to saving our country from Brandon.

Sheeple can't function, without constant guidance, and their ceremonial masks, and other forms of safety equipment, such as hand sanitizers, etc., etc....

Before forcing students to wear masks they should do online learning. The bottom line is the virus is not any deadlier than the flu for young people. If teachers want to wear a mask do so, but there should be no mandate.

Let the people in each individual district who know the conditions in that district make decisions for them. Politicians need to stop interjecting where thy do not belong just to further their career. It appears they have no regard for what is best for the people. Shameful

He should not be wasting the state's funds for this. The school administrations know what is best for them and their schools. These are different times. Our children should remain safe, as deemed necessary to the current situations.

Let the schools handle what is best for them. He is only doing it for his own political gain while running for Senate. I would think he would have more urgent matters to handle than attacking our schools.

CPS has no legal authority to continue fear-mongering. Cloth masks, the vaxes don’t work, online learning stunts learning and developmental stages, but keep living in fear if it makes you feel better. Mass Formation Psychosis is real. Eric Schmitt does a great job!

He needs to keep his nose out of this. Thank goodness the local schools have enough sense to do what needs to be done and keep our kids safe. Learning from home and being healthy is far better than being in an unhealthy environment and potentially making others seriously ill

The Attorney General threats of suing school districts, who are trying to better control illness at their LOCAL LEVEL, should be considered overreach. And any school district who is sued should successfully sue the attorney general’s office for any expenses/damages arising from spread of disease.

That decision belongs to the local school board. He's making it political at the risk of students, teachers, other staff and families.

Doesn't Mr. Schmitt have more important work to do than interfere with schools that are trying to make it safer for their students and staff so they might avoid having to resort to virtual learning.

Let the schools decide about mask mandates. Schmitt is only getting involved in this for political reasons. He should be fighting crime, not high schools

The schools do not have conservatorship over parents & their children, 2nd these public servants are paid by the tax paying parents, they need to remember who they work for & that we are responsible for core values our kids live by, after all, parents are first to be blamed for their choices, right?

The schools do not own the children, nor do the schools pay child support. The schools work for the taxpayer, and should obey the taxpayer.

That is why the parents should be involved, not the government. The Parents Bill of Rights is a good thing for everyone except Socialists and Communists.

Law enforcement needs to investigate all of these threats on social media. If the threat turns out to be not credible then serious fines need to be imposed. These kinds of threats are not a joking matter these days

It happens all too often these days to just completely dismiss it. I held my girls back in Ashland until I spoke to the school regarding rumors that had been circulating here. They went in just a bit late, bit we're still a bit on edge.
