By CBS San Francisco Staff:
OAKLAND (CBS SF) — A group of Oakland Unified high school students are threatening to walk off campuses if the school district doesn’t provide more COVID protections or return to online learning.
More than 150 high school students signed a petition demanding that the school district provide KN95 masks for every student, twice weekly COVID tests for everyone on campus and more covered outdoor spaces where students can eat in inclement weather. The students say the only other acceptable choice would be to return to online learning.
