Lack of a Plan Says It All

Anyone heard how they are handling MS and HS quarantine? Will it include vaccinated kids?

Rinse and repeat.

Bingo. No one is going to quarantine just because they traveled. And DCPS is too incompetent to enforce any rules to begin with.

The teacher is either in person or virtual. The class isn’t going to go virtual because one person traveled. If there is an in class positive case, then the entire class goes virtual, including the teacher. The thought process makes perfect sense and is completely practical, not punitive

I understand why it's happening. I am hoping that teachers will at least send home packets if a kid is exposed. It even feels like you could get a laptop, point it at the teacher, and record the lesson and then send to the student.

Teacher here. This sounds awesome. Kid travels to hot spot. Doesn't say anything. Brings covid into the classroom. Exposes other kids. Quarantine happens. Teacher does a backflip and goes from in-person to virtual in the space of less than 24 hours. But the catch being all kids in quarantine get classes but the kid who travel doesn't get any virtual instruction. Maybe a packet? Oh what fun it is to teach in dcps.

So you do actually want to punish the child for the bad behavior of their parents...? And you are a teacher?

Or wait, no, maybe you were just describing the insanity. My apologies if so.
