I had the same question. If a private preschool or school said "We are requiring masks," isn't that fine since they don't use public funds?

Privates can do whatever they want now.


The mandate covered all k-12 schools. The crazy thing is Youngkin is even trying to prohibit private schools from requiring masks, if you read the language of the order.

“A child whose parent has elected that he or she is not subject to a mask mandate should not be required to wear a mask under any policy implemented by a teacher, school, school district, the Department of Education, or any other state authority.”

What happened to letting private entities make their own decisions without government interference?


Privates can just say that masks are part of the uniform.

Privates that followed the Northam EO will need to follow the Youngkin EO.

Yes. But I believe the school is outside of the beltway. I’m almost positive the school is St. Marys.


I know lots of kids at St Marys and they wear masks all day except for at lunch and recess. This maskless school is most definitely NOT St Marys!

There is a small (but loud) group who wishes St Mary’s was maskless but they are very much the minority view.


That “minority” donates by far the most MONEY. So we’ll see who wins out. If you think St Marys ain’t be voluntary mask in a week, I have a condo in Miami for you.


It’s precious how “Christian” you are.

Wow. Are you a St Marys parent?

I hope this well funded minority takes the other students (and more importantly, the teachers!) feelings into consideration before ripping their masks off gleefully.
