ARLINGTON COUNTY, Va. - Arlington County Schools will end mask mandates in March. The announcement came during a school board meeting Thursday.

At a Leesburg diner yesterday, Youngkin told the crowd to respect other people's choices whether to wear a mask or not.

FOX 5's Melanie Alnwick reports Youngkin added an amendment to the law which gives him the authority to suspend it if there is a need to.

Arlington County schools says as they get closer to March 1, more information will be provided on how families can opt-out, Alnwick says.
