[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are schools allowed to ignore the guidance? Is it definitely binding?[/quote]

I think yes. I mean schools all over the country are open - not just TX and FL - (NY, MA, Chicago (IL). Mayor Bowser is either too afraid to do what is right for kids or too stupid and only seems focused on opening businesses (also important but not at the expense of kids). [/quote]

The issue is the city's health guidance, not CDC's. The city is capping the number of kids in class at 11, and that limit needs to go. I wonder if schools can just ignore it. [/quote]

Charters can't ignore it. The PCSB has consultants and monitors reviewing charter operations. I doubt that individual DCPS school principals can do ignore it. Just think about it - ignore it and someone gets sick, get sued then fired and if a charter, risk getting sanctioned or closed by the PCSB. Ignore it and no illness, still get fired, and if a charter risk getting sanctioned or closed by the PCSB.[/quote]

But is the city's guidance legally binding? I was under the impression that some private schools have stopping following the city's guidance because they think it's silly. [/quote]
