Parents of 12 students with disabilities in Virginia have won a legal victory over Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R), who sought to make masks optional statewide.
“The school must engage in the interactive process with the student and his or her parents to determine … whether some amount of masking is necessary to satisfy” federal disability law, that guidance will read. “The school must not require a student with disabilities to be segregated or excluded solely because of his or her need for peer masking as a necessary reasonable modification.
The settlement released this week also says the Commonwealth of Virginia will pay the families who sued $295,000 “in full and complete satisfaction of any and all claims, allegations, or causes of action for attorney’s fees, costs, disbursements, and expenses incurred.”Youngkin issued his mask-optional order as one of his first actions in office. It was immediately controversial, drawing lawsuits and dividing families, schools and students.
