Students in Oakland on Monday were allowed in class without their masks on for the first time since the beginning of the pandemic as Oakland Unified dropped its indoor mask mandate.
Oakland Unified was one of a few Bay Area school districts that kept its mask mandate in place after state health restrictions were relaxed earlier in April.In San Francisco, the remaining classroom mask mandates were lifted for all students no matter their grade on April 4.
Oakland teacher Megan Bumpus says a March survey teachers did revealed 61% of respondents felt masks should be required the rest of the school year. COVID cases have slowly but steadily ticked up across the majority of the Bay Area since mid-March due to the highly contagious omicron BA.1 and BA.2 variants.
