The bill, S.F. No. 1222, introduced in Minnesota, allows parents to withdraw their children from any face covering mandates in schools without needing to give a reason. The legislation applies to both school district and charter school settings. If a school requires students to wear masks, a parent can simply inform school authorities like the school board, principal, or the administrative head of the school to opt their child out. The school must accept this decision without demanding any justification related to the child's health or educational needs and cannot penalize or treat the child differently because of the parent's decision to opt-out.
