That makes no sense. We have control over ventilation. It's an effective way to lower the spread of the virus. Masks and ventilation help reduce the spread and keep us all safe.

I am glad APS has purifiers in each room. I realized it may not be perfect, but it's a good idea. We are hybrid and I realize it comes with some risk, but I also still feel glad they are trying to mitigate risk too.


Only the classrooms The cafeterias DO NOT have filters! Unmasked children and no filters. A disgrace.


Cafeterias are MASSIVE and necessarily better-ventilated than a low-ceilinged classroom. They also spend less time there so the exposure probabilities are lower. Unless you put the air filter right next to the student it's not going to do anything.

They’re going to be there for 35 minutes unmasked.

I wonder if that’s because there’s no purifier big enough foe a school cafeteria?

My kid ate outside twice this week. Rainy days will be a problem. But this is all part of our risk calculus.

You would put multiple in there. We were told it’s because the ceilings are high. I guess covid rises?
