[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My children are in school today. They are in newly red schools and all three said attendance of students and teachers was great yesterday. No subs needed and they noticed maybe 1-2 absent students they know of which is normal after the holidays in any year.

My kid is in unicorn "green" school. Friends said most classes were 1/4 to 1/2 empty.

Small sample size, but I'd wager that's because the following things are correlated:

-We are "green" not because of low rates in our immediate community, but because we are a poorer school with unique communication issues (non-Spanish/non-English language issues) and fewer people are able to PCR test and/or know how to/can easily report

-This same population is also more cautious about sending kids to school during high community spread, as evidenced by the fact that only 35% sent their kids back last spring  [/quote]

My child's school which has the same characteristics (very high rate of FARMS and majority ESOL) is red and most everyone showed up yesterday. They had classes as usual.

If you look at the dashboard closely there is also a green school that is in a wealthy area that has almost no ESOL. Your theories are so bogus and you should just stop stereotyping.[/quote]

I believe you, but if you look at the chart closely, you'll see that your two examples are definitely outliers.

The data is problematic. [/quote]
