Portland Public Schools Delays Vote Over COVID-19 Vaccination Requirement

(Portland, OR) -- The Portland Public Schools Board will delay its planned vote on a possible COVID-19 vaccine requirement for students. The board meeting was moved online earlier this week after several people in attendance refused to wear masks. The District Superintendent says the scheduled vote will take place on November 16--two weeks later than what it was supposed to be.

Tuesday night's meeting was intended to discuss possible exemption options for students and a framework for how administrators would implement the policy.
