Me. Nope, just said hopefully the school already called. We were 5 days in by the time the county called.

We still haven't heard from the County. What good is it to call after so long?

Why do you need multiple calls? The school called and informed you. What do you expect the county to tell you that you don’t already know?

I'm not expecting much if anything. Someone on here said they got a call from both the school and then the county. So I'm wondering if and when we will get the call from the county. I would actually like to know what info the county gives out.

APE's latest newsletter discusses progress made this week with APS on Test to Stay, including organizing a meeting with APS with scientists to discuss it. Looks like it's a problem with the quantity of antigen tests in VA (vs. Maryland, which has plenty for MoCo to roll it out).

I'd expect this problem to get taken care of soon. Can't wait for it to come here.

Thank you APE for pushing to minimize these painful and unnecessary disruptions in school for our kids.
