AT LEAST ONE SCHOOL SYSTEM BUCKING GOV LEES OPT-OUT MASK ORDER
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) – The Shelby County School District said Monday it will continue to enforce a mask mandate following the governor’s executive latest executive order.
Executive Order 84 allows parents to opt their child out of a local mask mandate required by a school or health board.
Superintendent Dr. Joris Ray said the school district is consulting with its general counsel to explore and review the legalities of Governor Bill Lee’s executive order. He said in the meantime, in alignment with the Shelby County Health Department Order No. 24, masks will be required for all employees, students, and visitors who enter schools and district offices.

Nashville did as well, and good on them. Other counties could learn from this. We have our own voices.
