California School Board Votes to Reject Vaccine Mandate

12 Nov 2021

The Calaveras Unified School District (CUSD) in California said Wednesday it will not adhere to the state’s coronavirus vaccine mandate.

In a five to zero vote, the CUSD’s Board of Trustees made the decision to not “support, enforce, or comply with” the pending mandate, Fox 40 reported.

“This outcome was the same for the both agenda items addressing students as well as staff,” the district said in a social media post:

“Direction was also provided to agendize the topics of Mask Mandates and Testing Protocols for the 11/23 Board Meeting for further discussion and possible board action,” it concluded.

In a letter posted November 4, the district said the board was aware of the potential impacts regarding possible liability exposure, funding loss, and additional formal actions that could come against the district in response:

The decision to reject the mandate came approximately one week after U.S. health officials approved the child-size vaccination doses for people aged five to 11.

Most people are against mandatory coronavirus vaccines for schoolchildren, and a majority are worried about the safety of the shots for the young, a Rasmussen Reports survey posted Thursday found.
