My hometown is as deep blue as it comes and masking is still the norm. Most stores still require it and you STILL see people in cars alone, walking down the street, even jogging(!) wearing masks. I never wore masks outside and regularly got dirty looks from maskers while hiking or walking down the street.
I'm on vacation now to a red area and it's such a relief to be gone from that. I didn't even realize how oppressive the constant masking is. I took my kid to a playground yesterday that must have had 50-60 people (kids and adults) and not a single mask in sight. My kid was nervous at first (he's had to mask at school for 8 hours a day), and now he can't shut up about how great it is not to wear masks.
It's wonderful.
I like the school. I won't say it's not woke, but it's substantially less woken than other private and public schools in the area. It's a charter school.
About 1/3 to 1/2 of all families didn't send their kids back to school (staying virtual) back in March, because they were so concerned about the risk of covid.
Mask mandate is generally popular in my area. Sucks.
American schools don't teach much, and what little they do teach is wrong. Don't be surprised when your kid becomes a mentally stunted progressive.
