[quote=Anonymous]I've started working in a kindergarten classroom in DC as an aide. The kids are fine wearing masks for the most part. But, for some of them, they are really struggling to learn letters and letter sounds because they can't see the teacher's mouth. I'm not sure I think the benefits outweigh the setbacks. And I say that as a person who has been very conservative over the last two years (I haven't eaten inside a restaurant in 2 years, for example) and who would be at increased risk in my job if masks came off. Don't we think at this point that we can end the mandate and then kids that need more protection can continue to wear great masks at school? Can't we treat this a bit like we treat peanut butter and other allergies? You can't come to school with covid, and if you've got a particular situation that makes your child especially susceptible to covid, then you take the extra precautions needed for your child to be safe.
