[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have any schools sent testing results to parents?[/quote]

We tested this afternoon and got our results this evening.  Thankfully, negative.[/quote]

Which school?[/quote]

Burgundy Farm.[/quote]

Same-- Burgundy Farm family, both kids tested negative. Curious to hear the results but considering we have not yet heard, I'm assuming we are not going back on campus on Weds. Sending a "see you Weds" email would be much simpler than an email announcing virtual learning for the week, which would require much more planning etc. before comms went out. Also, if the SSSAS numbers reported here are true, I would expect similar numbers from Burgundy.

I'm conflicted on what I think schools should do, and I guess it depends on the objective. If the objective is to minimize Covid spread and a potential outbreak, absolutely close. But, for how long? Until this entire wave passes? I just don't know-- Covid is not good for staff & faculty, nor is it good for students and their families. But weeks-long school closures aren't good for students and their families, either.[/quote]

Another burgundy family here  - sure wish they would have sent any communication last night, even if incomplete, but agree with you that the silence means we aren’t going back this week. Ugh.[/quote]

And another Burgundy parent here, with another negative kid.  Mine actually likes remote learning, so, we're fine there -- but to be selfish for a moment, teleworking with a kid at home is rough.  And mine's old enough to self-manage.  Hats off to those of you with smaller children -- once this is all over, you deserve the best and quietest vacation ever.[/quote]

Ugh yes, one of the other Burgundy PPs here - ours are too young to really handle remote learning at all, and we are both working. Or pretending to. Overall, this is bringing back terrible PTSD from last year when our kids were at a different school that was nearly all virtual for 14 months and we nearly didn't make it. [/quote]

Hang in there!  Someday we'll look back on this and... probably not laugh.[/quote]
