[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So everyone who doesn't opt in now gets their kids sent hope with symptoms.  :shock:

Better opt in if you want your kid staying in school.[/quote]

No, because the way the current system works is that people are released from quarantine only when the person who had symptoms tests negative. They can't release themselves from quarantine from a negative test. So if the current guidance stays, and the symptomatic student hasn't opted into tested, then everyone is forced to quarantine.

They still need to rescind the guidance and go back to CDC/MD standard.[/quote]

Majority of parents don't want testing or they'd opt in.  So, these are the rules.  Deal with it.  Many parents will send their sick kids to school.[/quote]
Nah. People are just lazy.[/quote]

+1.  Opt in requires effort.  There are also many who don’t see the value in asymptomatic testing, but do see the value in testing symptomatic students.  The problem is that now there is a lot of confusion with two different testing programs and procedures, and policies that seem to change every day.[/quote]
