[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Juniors and seniors can get the Pfizer vaccine and need to be back in.  K-3 are the lowest transmitters and worst hit by DL and need to be back in.

If FCPS is smart, they will commit to holding vaccine clinics this summer when supply loosens up and getting juniors and seniors vaccines and back 5 days a week, which starts to provide scheduling certainty.  Then vaccinate 12-16 as a top priority, hopefully in early fall and put 7-10 back after vaccination.

K-3 goes back full time, and 4-6 follows after a month pause to course correct and make sure mitigation hold.

It’s pretty safe for K-6 if they cohort and 11-12 with the vaccine. But, it’s impossible to see secondary schools fully online until the 12-16 shot is approved.

Have you not followed what's happening all over the country? Schools are in-person, now, fully, 5 days, with masks and some (but not 6') distancing. Even high schools. And there is very little spread. Here's one high school open with migitation all year encouraging others to follow suit: https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/25/us/education-ohio-high-school-open-wellness/index.html

In Europe they don't even encourage kids 12 and under to wear masks to school, and many European schools are open. Only 8 EU member nations are actually practicing social distancing in their schools according to the European CDC. So I'm failing to see how your vaccination for 4th-6th graders is required either.[/quote]
