[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family members in the Chicago suburbs are incredulous that kids in DC area are still out. They started back a month after Labor Day and kids have been in school.[/quote]

And coronavirus is way worse in Chicago than it is DC.

The difference is Chicago has a mayor who actually made school reopening a priority. [/quote]

Is there anywhere else in the country at this point where children have not gone back to school in at least some capacity in person if their parents opted for in person outside of this area? Even my nieces and nephews in LA County have gone back in person some days a week. My family in CT has been full time in person for K-8 since October and was hybrid before that point.

What we are experiencing in DC is [b]so far outside the norm at this point it’s unbelievable[/b].[/quote]

My friends in NYC have all been sending their elementary and middle school-age children to public school 3 days a week since January.  My cousins in Boston have been sending them for hybrid since Sept.  A sibling in Miami has sent hers 5 days a week since winter break.  Most of my DCPS friends have no access to in-person learning, although they've requested it.  The DC Metro area is indeed far behind the curve as a whole.[/quote]
