[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many factors at play;

- metrics by DC that are more difficult to obtain than other state metrics particularly in an environment of heavy testing and CT cycles that can cause false positives (NYT)
- less of a teaching population that maybe willing to teach in contrast to more teachers willing  (but  obviously not all) at schools in NOVA and Moco
- no Governor  or state health department that over rides  DC decisions. (Hogan)   Or Governor  that has some political balance / pressure to allow private schools to open (Northam)
- anecdotally have heard less parents  At DC privates want to go back in contrast to VA and MD privates
- anecdotally have heard more parents at DC privates are very vocal about not opening 
- no organized group of parents fighting for schools to open creating pressure 
- for the big 3 schools, no fear of loss of applicants , tuition or donations in contrast to some of the MD / VA schools; large endowments at some of the schools.  Large PPE payments at some schools.  Will not hurt financially to stay close in contrast to some schools in MD : Va
