Are you going to send a mask with your kid to school?

Schools won’t be reopening until 2021. Guaranteed.

By then, things should be better and you wonMt have to worry about a mask.

2021? You’re insane, guaranteed.

Get back to me in the Fall.

You are insane, guaranteed, if you think the kids are back IN the classrooms in the fall.

Lol ok!

I'm not saying I doubt you - but then why hasn't Maryland called off school for the year. I hate the uncertainty!

The state doesn’t want to be seen as rushing things. Virginia got some backlash for closing everything too early. Maryland is taking a week by week approach.

They will close it down for the year. Tell your kid that so he knows what to expect. I agree that the uncertainty can be tough for the kids.

I am already watching neighbors lax and I know we won't be back in school. Maryland is showing another increase in numbers this week

And schools will be the very last thing to open.

Think of snow days. Private businesses tend to stay open. Public schools are always closed the longest.

This is just like that. The logistics of opening schools and serving meals (!!) to kids will be impossible. How do you think MCPS is going to serve food to kids at lunch, IN the schools? How do you think MCPS will be able to get kids back on their overcrowded buses?

Our MS orchestra room is packed to the gills. Good luck getting any distance.

And MCPS is just too big to make the changes necessary to allow for social distancing and meal delivery, etc.

No school in the fall. I’d be surprised to se the kids go back before Winter Break next year. We’ll see, I guess.

There's no reason for that.

And snow days are not analogous.

Guaranteed you aren't talking to the teachers' union. Teachers' unions are already putting forth their demands for any future school re-opening. Catch up.

Their demands? LOL. Every teacher I know, including me, wants to open school back up ASAP, so long as it's safe. Some of us are still holding out hope for June.

I stand by my answer. Including for the fall. Unlikely to have in person school.

you people are nuts about no school in the fall (in person). Things are just about to start to plateau and with Hogan's metrics he's using (ICU cases and hospitalization rates) we will be well on our way to have school in the fall.

LOL You just typed your demand. "So long as it's safe." Now explain how that will work?

Phrasing it as a "demand" plays into your view that the union is this thug organization, dictating everything. You could have used the word "request," but that wouldn't have conveyed the same dark shade of meaning. I want to go to work as soon as it's safe to do so. I would be THRILLED to go in tomorrow, if there was some miracle and the risk disappeared. The DCUM consensus is that teachers are enjoying a free paid vacation, lazily throwing up premade lessons, and plan to delay going back to work as long as possible. Which is just not true at all.

Of course, it's moot, because MCEA actually has not "put forth their demands" for future school re-opening. They have been part of the conversation of how distance learning is working out, but there's been no discussion of what fall distance learning would look like, should it be necessary

Schools aren't opening soon so no need to pay think about that.

Do you read anything other than message boards? They expect a second wave in the fall. The second wave may be deadlier than the first.

No, the virus is new and they made a mistake (and needed to brain wash us so we wouldn't go out and hoard masks.) The virus is in droplets or aerosol in the air, appears to be the latest thinking.

Anyhow, there is no need to worry til Fall, at least in the DC area. Schools probably won't go back until then.

They said a Fall wave could happen. They don’t know. That’s why they are watching what happens in the a Southern Hemisphere. It’s a novel disease so no one knows anything. Quit being hysterical.
