[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s not forget that the stats for Covid in kids are pretty good.

Masking, no masking, vaccines, no vaccines, schools closed, schools open.  Doesn’t matter.  ZERO kids age 0-17 have died of Covid in Montgomery County during his entire pandemic.

But how many have long term cognitive defects? No one knows. Maybe it will show up in MCAP results in a few years. I’m not taking that chance, my kid is a high achiever and I want them to have the chance to remain so.[/quote]

I hope that VA can continue for you, then.[/quote]

+1. If MCAP results are mediocre, it’s because schools were closed. This is documented everywhere now that school closures has harmed kids’ education. It’s not because there’s a bunch of kids in cognitive decline because of covid. If that were something to be concerned by, it would also be documented (and no, not by your anecdotes or fear mongering headlines). [/quote]
And MCAPs were given in the fall for classes taken in the spring. Summer learning loss is real![/quote]

Yup. If we actually cared about education in this country, we’d move to year-round school. Summer break is terrible for education.[/quote]
