ADW Mask Policies

I thought this last summer. But here we are still. Near 100% vaccinated by Fall 2021 and all booster by March 15, 2022. Hopefully the de-masking comes some. Maybe just after spring break.

Yep. I was ready for optional masking last summer. Shocked we’ve masked for this long. It’s so silly.

So where is the equivalent for all the parents who want to comply with local health guidance and not have our school act the scofflaw? Are you planning to use your town hall to get loud and then pretend everyone agrees with you?


Local health guidance is going to end mask mandates in another 10 days. Good for them to get in front of it. ADW should be ready to drop masks the moment moco drops the mandate in all indoor spaces. Regardless, private schools are not under the same guidelines as public schools with regard to masks.


But it’s the Archdiocese of WASHINGTON as in Washington DC - not Baltimore or Arlington. Like it or not DC is where you have to look for health guidance. Last time you all tried this petition it was an absolute fail.


ADW schools in MOCO do not have to wait for the county mask mandate to be dropped. There are private schools in MOCO that have already made masks optional and it is perfectly legal due to the fact that private schools are not part of the county indoor mask mandate.


I fixed it and bolded it above for clarification.


The DC mask order does cover private schools.


Yes, as does the DC requirement that all students are vaccinated by the Fall.


Wow k-8 parochial students are required to have the vax by fall in DC?


Yes in DC per the mayor’s order. And a silly ADW petition like this one can’t do a thing about it.


The “silly” petition to the ADW is not about Bowser. It is about getting the ADW to take a stand and advocate for its children. It’s not a public entity and should not be treated as such. The “equity” argument is not applicable as vaccines are available to all. Move along ADW. Care about children.

So you don't think DC private schools should have to turn in the health forms to DC like we do every year, which includes proof of a gazillion vaccinations? How is this any different to you? Or have you been protesting this for years and years?

What are you even talking about? Mandate the vaccines and skip the masks. Period.

How long do you feel kids need to cover their faces? Seriously. There is suffering. Luckily in Catholic schools there is a sense of community and love and the kids have been more resilient than public schools, where we are witnessing a severe mental health crisis brought on by a multitude of things like isolation and, yes, masking. But it is happening on a smaller scale and is only a matter of time. Time to let children start to experience normal social interactions with their teachers and peers.

+1 Catholic schools have been amazing during the pandemic. my kids are thriving. they've never had a covid test. or had to quarantine. or had to listen and experience the endless fear mongering in this area. they've been in person since september 2020. now it's time to let them unmask and move on completely.


What a lesson to teach them to move on with their own carefree lives while others around then suffer with illness and death.

Surely there’s a Bible teaching someone in here…


I think the lesson is to not have a small minority of people drag down and punish everyone else. And impose their mental and health challenges upon all others.



how very catholic of you.

There are ADW schools with pre-K kids and the vaccine is not available to them. Do you really not know that? And how about teachers with kids too young to get the vaccine - I guess they don’t matter either?

Numbers. Very few prek vs k-8th kids. No brainer. Require vaccines of all eligible and mask the rest.

How many teachers have died? Seriously, how many teachers have died from Covid? I know many people who have died in the past 3 years, but no teachers that have died from Covid. If there are statistics, I'd apprecate you sharing.

And please do disclose the evidence directly linking in person teaching with a teacher’s Covid death.

Also, Denmark.

I’m convinced this is an organized multi-prong campaign.
