[quote=Anonymous]I am not quite sure if your plan would work for a cohort of medically fragile due to risk of infectious disease students especially since the masking would be voluntary. I do think MCPS is lacking in providing services to students at elevated risk of illness.  I wonder if you can get MCPS to pay for a suitable virtual homeschool program since it sounds like you can prove that due to your child’s documented medical condition, your child cannot safely attend school. The public school legally has to provide a suitable education for children with documented special needs and if you can prove the school cannot due so, they legally must pay to send your child elsewhere.  Also,  I do not know your child’s condition, but would having your child wear properly fitted through the doctor’s office n95 and then eat in a properly ventilated room with a masked attendant fit the bill for keeping your child safe? This seems safer then relying on other kids to mask and also then having to navigate how to provide food. I also have a child with chronic illness and have not found MCPS very helpful so would not rely on them to properly mask other children who are voluntarily masking. [/quote]
