[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those of you angry about school closures or virtual learning, whose kids struggled so much last school year, will you do your part to make school safe and open by opting IN to in-school asymptomatic testing, respecting travel quarantine rules, avoiding indoor sports and unmasked indoor gatherings this winter? Will you make sure your kid stays home when sick, and provide them with a well-fitting quality mask? [/quote]

No, but I will advocate for the thing that will ACTUALLY make it safer: mandatory vax for all adults in dcps schools. [/quote]

NP. You won’t commit to any of those? Not even not sending your sick kid to school?[/quote]

No, but NOPE. Onus should be on unvaxed adults. My kids have done enough.[/quote]

So wait, you are saying you would send your kids to school WITH covid?  Because your kids have done enough?[/quote]

My kids are vaxxed and I would do a Covid test if they are symptomatic. But I am honestly pissed at the prospect of them having to wear masks and have another subpar year. They are in MS and HS. I want mandatory vaxes for 12 and up.[/quote]

My question was implicitly directed at the parents of kids too young for vaccines. Thanks for sharing, though. The age of your kids clarified what sounded like an extreme position, although I am concerned that some parents of younger kids would feel the same way, alas, from what I've read on this board.[/quote]

I’m the DP above who will send my kid in with runny noses and lingering coughs. They are 7 and 5...[/quote]

And they will be sent home again, and you’ll be asked to pick them up and get a Covid test because runny noses happen to be one of the symptoms of Delta (it wasn’t a symptom, nor was sneezing, of the original disease which was a great thing for allergy sufferers all year. [/quote]

My kids were in DCPS in person in the spring and in DCPS camp this summer and never got sent home for runny noses and lingering coughs[/quote]
