Curious how many people you know who tested positive for Covid in the last 3 days, who would have otherwise shown up (not yet positive) to school on Monday? |
Does it really even matter? Pretty sure you can’t run omicron unless you retreat to an isolated bunker. It is here to stay we have to learn to live with it. |
3 at DD's middle school |
Was this a good use of your time? You can just move on you know |
You can actually look at the dashboard to find this info. 100 kids since 1/3.

And here is the Covid dashboard for ACPS: https://www.acps.k12.va.us/domain/1600 Not surprisingly, it has not been updated for 10 days. ![]() |
Oh yes, and Duran closed APS office again today because FCPS has a snow day. Administrative offices surely can't be open if they aren't in a neighboring county. |
FCPS central and school offices are open today. |
Shocking. And the Curative testing booths were closed for five days. Neither Alexandria City nor ACPS has any mass testing plans, even with the positivity rate reaching 30%. |
APS central office has been working too. I got email responses from a couple people. |
NP. IMO it does matter, the more cases we can avoid during this surge the better. The more cases of spread and exposures we can avoid while teens and tweens are getting their boosters, the better. Hopefully by this weekend anyone who picked it up over winter break will have popped positive and won't have been in classrooms or cafeterias exposing their friends. Many who did get sick or exposed will be finishing quarantines and won't have missed any school. Everyone absolutely will get it, but it would be great if we could avoid having individual schools or classrooms move to virtual because it's completely out of control for the next few weeks. YMMV |
OP, are you asking how many asymptomatic positives were caught? |
Sending a couple of emails is not the same as open. There is absolutely no reason administrative offices should be closed. They literally gave themselves the day off. |
With how many COVID cases there are at Syphax I think it's probably a good idea that they are working from home |
No - just more holding out the perhaps unrealistic hope that this forced closure will at least slow the spread of omicron. |
