How about scanning students' palms? will McPs be able to get such "technology" in this century?


Much better than forcing kids to wear their IDs around their necks on lanyards, which won’t be effective at all once the cold & flu and COVID surges spike again and kids are all masked up while they walk the halls.


Kids aren’t going to mask. They will go sick.


This selfishness is exactly why we need a virtual academy


For the kids that refuse to mask?


They spread it to everyone. They need a school for kids with or who have close family members with health issues. Virtual or in person. They can use the old BOE building and convert it into a school at least for k-8th and put in good ventilation, daily cleaning, have masking, enforce no kids come to school sick, etc. If in person is so important to the BOE president make an option for those with special needs.


Why "daily cleaning"?

Are you implying that a school for kids with compromised immune systems should be cleaned less frequently than the typical MCPS school, which is daily? Seriously?

To stop the spread of surface illnesses like colds, flu, RSV, Covid. Isn't it common sense to clean?

OK. By calling it out I thought the PP was suggesting something beyond what is typically done in other schools, but I didn't know what.

MCPS just does a superficial cleaning. They sweep and collect the trash, maybe wipe down common areas. They don't have enough staff to do it. Some teachers are great about cleaning. We had one teacher in ES who had the kids wipe down their desks, supplies and chairs 1-2 times a week with wipes, and she did the main areas. It cut down a lot on colds that year (and yes, I gladly donated tons of wipes).

You are correct...those desks get nasty really fast.

DP. An ID requirement is worthless if there are a million reasons they wouldn't be able to actually expect students to always have their ID at school.
