[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn't read every comment, but curious about how parochial schools will respond. Our school is very pro-mask. But the church it is affiliated with has less than 50% mask wearing during mass. I really have no sense of what the school community would like to see happen - teachers or parents. I personally don't even care that much, I like the extra mask protection but know that the kids don't wear them properly all day anyway, so it seems like theater. I won't be too upset if we have to keep them or if we have to give them up.

But I do wonder if giving up masks makes the exposure notifications different? Right now the school says if the children are masked it's not counted as exposure. So if there are no masks, does that mean every time a child gets covid the whole class has to quarantine? Seems like they need to figure that out before they change the mask policy.[/quote]

Our parochial school in Arlington just announced that they won't enforce wearing the mask and sent out forms for parents to acknowledge whether our kids will or will not be wearing.  And contrary to the church you describe above, I would estimate that better than 97% of mass attendees have been masking at ours - so this is a big shift[/quote]
