[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCB masks are mandatory indoors this month but they will re-evaluate on a monthly basis based on citywide and school-wide transmission levels and masks could become optional for, say, October.  Masks are optional outdoors.  I think the approach makes sense and there are a lot of factors/community members' needs to consider, and I am fine with their decision-making.[/quote]

[b]Yeah, that’s just words though. If they’re not lifting mask mandates when levels are low, when would they exactly? [/b]They have the exact same factors as ever other school in the District (and country for that matter). If they’re not saying EXACTLY what criteria they’re using, you have to assume it’s just lip service and punting the decision.[/quote]

They did state their criteria. They said when DC is in low transmission (and school transmission doesn't exceed x staff/kids overall or in classroom spread). BUT, they then said that they don't trust the data being reported by DC. That is the part that makes it hard to believe the mandate will be lifted anytime in the future. If the decision is based on data that you discount...

With that said, some people seem happy with the decision and most aren't all that bothered, even if they'd rather it be different.[/quote]
