[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone summarize what the other DMV school districts are doing?  I think the following, but please correct and/or add to what I have below:

Arlington public:  Normal return to school on schedule 1/3/22, but extracurricular sports, theater, band etc cancelled for 2 weeks to reduce spread.  [b]There is symptomatic testing at Kenmore.[\b]

[b]DC public[/b]:  Requiring negative covid test FIRST before kids can return to school.  Kids who can't supply such a test will be sent home (though it seems more likely that schools will just do an in person test when kid shows up).

Fairfax public:  Testing is open for symptomatic staff and kids I think, but otherwise schools starts as planned. [b]Piloting test to stay at some schools.[/b]

Maryland:  Testing?  What is going on there, I don't know.

DMV privates:  Most seem to be opening on time as far as I can tell. [b]Many seem to be following DC public’s lead by requiring a negative test to return to school, some having no school Monday or Tuesday to allow testing to happen.[\b]

Please add/edit this with correct info if you can.  I almost started a new thread but didn't see a good place to put it.

According to the county board letter published on AEM, I suspect that Arlington can't do test to stay like DC is doing (wish we were doing this!) because of the intense shortage on tests.  [/quote]

I think you meant DC? [/quote]

Yes, I totally meant DC public.  Thank you (and thanks for the other corrections!)[/quote][/quote]
