Wow. Our high school dropped by 42 cases. There’s 0 staff out with COVID according to the new report. We should now be in the green.

Those are just the cases reported today, not the cumulative cases. There’s a separate document with the total cases since winter break started.

Yes, it's interesting to have the two sets of data.

WTH - 4pm 35 cases. 7pm 137 cases - red. Total Whiplash.

How long till MCPS take vaccinated students and staff off their lists? At what point is the entire school system essentially online? How will Special Education students who could not receive accommodations and services during the last 18 months of online learning going to receive accommodations and services now?

This is a nightmare.

My SN child, and all the other SN children I know, received services and accommodations. I have no complaints.
Don't use special needs as your pitchfork.

MSDE investigated and found a denial of FAPE because services and accommodations were not provided during online learning and he is due compensatory services. He regressed significantly and is two years behind where he should be for skills at this point. Some windows of opportunities for some skills may have permanently closed.

It’s great your child did well online. Not all did.

No way the central office can do a case-by-case assessment of each red school. They’ll all be virtual starting Monday after Friday’s planning day and apparently tomorrow’s super spreader in person day

This! Why is MCPS counting more than 14 days when it said 14 days?

As long as 1 school meets in person, is the school meeting the intent of the 180 days in person mandate?

Special ed para here; lots of services were sub-par last year.

In your school, perhaps.

Read the data. The majority of cases are students. Don't impugn teachers casually like that. As if they were subhuman, or something.

When do they tell Red scoops they are going Virtual?
