The West Virginia Education Association says it plans to take legal action against state officials, saying the safety of students and public school employees is in jeopardy because of the state’s COVID-19 metrics map.
In a statement, WVEA President Dale Lee accuses state leaders of manipulating the map to get students on the field and in the classroom.
The education union made that announcement Tuesday, saying its lawyers will be filing an injunction in Kanawha County Circuit Court in the next few days.
