PHILADELPHIA — The Central Bucks School Board in Pennsylvania scrapped a planned ninth-grade trip to Washington to visit the Holocaust Museum and other sites after a board member objected to city vaccine requirements that she said could exclude some students.
"I think we're discriminating against children who are not vaccinated," Lisa Sciscio said during a board meeting Tuesday night, voicing concern about COVID-19 vaccine requirements in Washington restaurants and the prospect of children being turned away from using indoor restrooms.
While "I love Washington, D.C.," she said, she suggested administrators find an alternative option for the March 31 trip.
