[quote=Anonymous]Could not disagree more — the school administration is doing an excellent job, and the attempts to litigate the most minor of issues on dcum over and over again don’t serve anyone other than the school’s detractors. Our reality is that of the top school doing a terrific job of the DL and HL, adapting relatively quickly to the circumstances as could best be expected.

Caution is warranted as long as our community positivity rate is 3%+, resident test positivity rate around 5%, and our R well over 1 (so expect to see rapid week on week worsening in December, just like was said on the previous of these boards when posters claimed that DC would not see a rise in cases). In that context, schools are not islands unto themselves particularly because (unlike in Europe) DC.gov is not limiting indoor dining, bars, concerts, events, like it had done earlier in the year with similar metrics.

Insufficiently reactive decisive community leadership means our school administration needs to lead while balancing the risk. They are in fact doing that and I don’t see how detracting from that effort through partial information sharing on this forum is helpful in any way. Unless the goal is to open at any cost and/or create a perception of reputational risk where none exists?

Before anyone tries to politicize my opinion, I’m an open-minded long-standing parent looking at this as objectively and scientifically as possible.[/quote]
