Our History
Formed in late 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, the MASK Coalition is dedicated to returning Oklahoma's students to in-person learning in a manner that is safe for students, teachers, and their families.
We believe that means a statewide, consistent mask policy to significantly reduce the chance of COVID-19 spread in our schools.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to protect Oklahoma's children, teachers, and their families by encouraging state leaders to adopt a uniform statewide masking policy for the pandemic duration. Absent that, we call on every school district to adopt a strong mask policy that is consistent and helps prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the classroom and in the homes of students and teachers..
