Following a decision by a downstate judge to implement a restraining order barring schools from enforcing mask mandates and other COVID-19 testing requirements, Chicago Public Schools detailed how the district will be impacted.
In a statement from CPS Saturday afternoon, the district said the court's ruling does not limit its power to enforce coronavirus restrictions for students and teachers.
"The court’s current ruling does not prohibit CPS from exercising its authority to continue its COVID-19 mitigation policies and procedures, including universal masking by students and staff and vaccination and testing requirements for staff members," CPS said in a statement. The district added that 53% of CPS students age 12 and older are fully vaccinated against the virus and 1 in 3 students ages 5 to 11 have received at least one dose. As of Saturday, more than 91% of CPS staff members are fully vaccinated.
On Friday, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker asked that the state Attorney General's office immediately appeal Sangamon County Circuit Court Judge Raylene Grischow's decision, saying it was"misguided" and schools may be forced to go remote if they don't have proper tools to keep students and staff safe.
The ruling states defendants are temporarily restrained from ordering school districts to require masks for students and teachers - unless a quarantine order is issued by a local health department.
