[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand why teachers and staff want to be vaccinated. I have attended all of the meetings for my kids and think opening can be done safely in the classroom. I can’t get over cafeterias. Both of the schools are planning lunch in cafeterias. How can he say schools are relatively safe, as I just heard on the press conference, when all of those unmasked kids are eating together?  Is indoor dining in restaurants now safe? [/quote]

[b]Eat in the classroom where kids are 6ft apart and kids are staying in place. [/b]Face shield to offer at least some protection.

[b]Use the cafeteria as extra space for the overcrowded classrooms to spread out. [/b][/quote]

Yep, this is what our kid's private has been doing since October.  So far, no cases.[/quote]

That’s a nice plan, but I’m a high school teacher and my child is in middle school. Both are planning on regular lunch periods in the cafeteria. That’s why I’m not comfortable with my DC going back. I can eat in a classroom but my kid won’t be able to at school.  Are any FCPS schools having them eat anywhere other than the cafeteria? [/quote]

My DD is in 7th grade. 40% of her school chose hybrid. Which means that 20% of students will be there on a given day. I'm comfortable with them eating in the cafeteria at 1/5th capacity. [/quote]

I know our grade level is about 75% in person and the school is similar, but with the gym, cafeteria, some other rooms being utilized I think we’ll be ok.[/quote]
