    Just as offensive as the sanctions being imposed or considered by the other side of the coin. I'm furious that the tax dollars I pay to support public education are being used for other purposes.

  • Florida threatens to cut funds for school districts imposing mask mandates

    Guardian staff and agencies

    Florida officials are threatening to withhold funds if school districts in two counties do not immediately do away with strict mask mandates as the state continues to battle through high hospitalization rates.

    School boards in Broward and Alachua counties received a warning on Friday from the state board of education giving them 48 hours to walk back their decisions to require masks for all students, exempting only children that have a doctor’s note.

    ... (the commissioner of education, Richard Corcoran) Corcoran is threatening to deduct the equivalent of school board members’ monthly salaries from state funding.
