Face masks; prohibit public schools and universities and colleges from requiring students to wear.
(H) Died In Committee
Summary
The bill would stop school boards, superintendents, and college officials in Mississippi from requiring students to wear face masks, face shields, or similar coverings. Parents of K‑12 students could still allow their child to wear a mask, and college students could choose to wear one, but schools could not impose a requirement. Safety equipment needed for occupational or laboratory courses would be exempt.
