SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif.—The Capistrano Unified School District Board of Trustees recently voted 4–2 to send a letter to Gov. Gavin Newsom asking him to rescind the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for K–12 students.
The motion, authored by Trustees Gila Jones and Martha McNicholas, drew large crowds of parents to the meeting on Oct. 20, where they spoke overwhelmingly against the mandate.
