Chicago-area high school students stage walkout after principal tells them to mask up for class or leave
Fox News
A group of high school students in the Chicago area walked out of class Monday after being told they had to wear masks to attend class.
Video shared on Twitter by Jon J. Kerr, publisher of The Kerr Report on Substack, shows a throng of maskless Vernon Hills High School students trickling out of the school.
Community High School District 128 told Fox News that students who refused to wear masks met with their principals and were given the opportunity to explain their position and ask questions.
The district, which includes Libertyville and Vernon Hills High School, said students were given three options Monday: put on a mask to attend class, leave school and have a parent report the absence, or stay in the gym and complete classwork."
