Mask Mandates:
Last week, Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt sent out a letter to school districts and local public health departments to stop with COVID-19 related health orders such as mask mandates and quarantine rules.
AG Schmitt cited a Cole County judge’s ruling last month that said health orders issued by local authorities under state health regulations were “null and void.”

The Springfield Public School District says it plans to keep its mask mandate in place until Christmas break. You can read their response to AG Schmitt in the article below.
On Friday, parents and students across the SPS District held a protest.
