Arlington Circuit Court Judge Louise DiMatteo ruled in favor of seven school boards that filed a lawsuit challenging the governor’s order.
Jan. 15. Her temporary restraining order means mask mandates put in place by school boards may remain, at least for now.The judge found that the single issue before the court was whether Youngkin, through his emergency powers, can override the decision of local school boards delegated to them under a 2021 state law that required boards to provide in-person instruction in a way that adheres to federal COVID-19 mitigation strategies “to the maximum extent practicable.
DiMatteo said that while the case is pending in court, there appears to be a benefit to keeping the current polices of universal mask mandates in place. The school boards said in a joint statement that the judge’s order protects “the health and well-being of all students and staff and reaffirms the constitutional right of Virginia’s local school boards to enact policy at the local level.”
