[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Until kids in elementary school can get a vaccine I truly don’t see how the fall will be normal with all kids back 4or 5 days.[/quote]

The message below came from APS tonight in the email addressing the 3 foot CDC recommendation... I agree it may not be normal (masks) but we are going back 5 days.

[quote]This is an encouraging step, as APS plans for five-day, in-person schedules this fall. [/quote]

Plus if community spread is way down - and we can confirm it with surveillance testing in schools - then we should absolutely have 5 days per week for any families who want it. [/quote]

One easy way to limit the numbers of families who want to send their kids back is NOT take reasonable precautions.  That way everyone who thinks the virus is a joke and school should never have closed in March can have their kids in school 5 days a week, and the rest of us are left with virtual.  But that's not what this discussion is about, right?  This discussion is about reasonable and robust precautions in the fall so that hopefully most (if not all) kids can return.  And there is the sticking point since everyone has different health risks (or lack thereof).[/quote]
