READ MORE:Hayden helped organize a walkout on Friday.
Large groups of students left class to protest the school’s mandatory mask rule. Hayden wants masks to be optional. “Our school newspaper, The Spoke, has labeled our walkout as anti-mask. I don’t think that’s what it is. It’s a pro-choice, pro-optional mask-wearing. I would never ask anyone to take a mask off or force them to wear one,” Hayden said.
On Sunday, the district said in a statement: “During tomorrow’s day of virtual instruction, we ask for a period of calm and cooperation as we prepare to reunify as a school community. We know Conestoga will rise to the challenge as we have done in the past.”Police say they were called to investigate three incidents that happened over the weekend in which students made some comments online that were perceived as threats, but officers determined none of those were real threats.
