Community members attended a contentious meeting of the Douglas County Board of Education in Castle Rock on Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2021. People from the community gathered to voice opposition to a mandate that students wear masks in the county’s schools during the 2021-22 school year.
The district decided last week to reaffirm its decision to require masks for students ages 2 to 11, along with the staff who works with these age groups despite the county commissioners choosing to opt-out.
