Biden wants everything open for political reasons so he can claim victory.  They simply don't care.  The studies the CDC looked at were small rural schools not ones like MCPS.  Its going to be a great social experiment with our kids, one I'd prefer not to have my kids participate in.[/quote]

That is false information about the CDC, and you should stop repeating it.

MCPS has a Virtual Academy option for people like you, who don't want their kids in school.[/quote]

Again MCPS never made virtual academy as an option for people with no extenuating circumstances. And the deadline has passed. So it’s not even relevant.[/quote]

It was your responsibility to apply in time for the deadline.

If you didn't apply for the Virtual Academy, and you also don't consider MCPS safe enough to send your child, then you will either have to find a different option, or send your child to MCPS anyway.[/quote]

Stop blaming other parents who have a second thought. And it was not easy to apply as you need supporting documents to demonstrate extenuating circumstances. Many people couldn’t get any supporting documents.[/quote]

I'm the PP you're responding to, and I'm not blaming. I'm just stating facts.[/quote]

I’m also stating a fact that virtual academy was not really an option for families with no extenuating circumstances. [/quote]

By design[/quote]

It should be open to everyone.  We tried applying.  They will not even acknowledge the request as I've emailed and called several times.[/quote]

Awww. It kind of sucks doesn’t it when MCPS doesn’t offer you exactly what you want. Last year I wanted my vision impaired severely disabled kindergartener to you know GO TO SCHOOL and Mcps told us to pound sand all year. We made other arrangements. Suggest you do the same. [/quote]

Me too. My kids wanted five days in-person last year. MCPS didn’t give them the chance.[/quote]

So you guys are so bitter and want parents who wish to choose virtual to also experience the same?[/quote]

Not bitter at all. I’m quite pleased that VA has been limited to those most in need of virtual services. Everybody else goes back. MCPS didn’t double down on its mistakes from last year.[/quote]
