YES!

To the other PP: the mitigation measures in place previously that were dropped recently had not failed. They had done a good job and were then dropped. We wouldn't have seen 13 cases reported by an elementary in one day if students and staff were masked in classrooms, even if some incredibly stupid people may have already been willfully sending their children to school contagious.

Our charter hasn’t dropped any mitigation measures. Kids still have to mask. Very strict quarantines. Still lots of Covid.

Post your school and we’ll compare.

Has any charter dropped any mitigation? Our school seems happy to have kids mask for the rest of their lives.

If you had Covid already, it is no big deal.
If you have not had Covid, it is a big deal.
Debate solved!

Close the school!

Close the school? So I guess you’ll teach my kids and also keep them busy while I work?

I guess you’ll babysit my kids if they get sick and keep them occupied while I work?

Parents, please opt out of covid testing for your child. It's the only way to stop this madness of masking and quarantines.

See, when people say "it's all in the past, let go!".....you get people calling for renewed school closures.

+1

Hopefully they'll run out of money for testing, as well.

I thought the PP was being sarcastic, but maybe not...?

If you want to keep your kids home to make sure they don't get sick, keep them home.

I want my kids masking if there's lots of covid in the class. And I don't want them going to school if they have covid. But if they don't have covid, I want them at school. I don't have any problem with the asymptomatic testing — or with keeping school open despite lots of cases.

NP. You will always, always be free to mask your kid. I don't want my kid to be forced to mask for ten days every couple of weeks because another kid in the class tested positive. That leads to nearly permanent masking, and it will continue indefinitely.

There is a reason the NFL stopped asymptomatic testing, as another PP above explained: they found very little evidence of asymptomatic transmission, and it was a far bigger problem for people to take a negative test as carte blanche to come in. Keep your kid home if they have symptoms. Don't pull a healthy kid out of school because of a random positive test.

We opted out of testing at the beginning of the year.

I was reading another thread that talked about WTU CORE's proposal from Jan. 2022 to go virtual whenever community case rates were over 200/100,000. Which would have meant that in 2022 schools would have been closed 40% of the time. Seems pretty relevant for the present.

Absolutely. There are absolutely still people who think virtual school is a viable alternative, and Covid case rates should trigger it. I just thought that the way the post above was worded sounded so knee-jerk that it had got to be a joke. But I also believe there really are people who have these sort of knee-jerk reactions.

So what 1.5% of the school? What’s the big hoopla about?
