NP - if teachers are vaccinated they don’t need to maintain social distance, just masks for all. They can keep all 4 classes at 25 students. Also they can teach 5 days a week, rather than 4+homeroom only on Wed, which is a joke. Parents who don’t want their kids in person can simply keep them in DL.[/quote]

But the kids still need to social distance too. [/quote]

Not given the effect of COVID on kids.[/quote]

No. Cdc guidelines are about reducing risk for everybody not saying "well teachers are vaccinated so who cares if all the kids get such"

If a kid gets covid they are expected to qurrantine for 10 days along with their household. I can tell you from experience that a kid can get a mild case but their parents did not.

Posts like this are why teachers can't trust parents to do the right thing and not intentionally send a sick kid to school because they can't be bothered to qurrantine. It happened in Utah (https://www.google.com/amp/s/kutv.com/amp/news/coronavirus/parents-fear-mom-code-will-keep-covid-19-numbers-artificially-low-in-utah-schools) 
Indiana (https://www.953mnc.com/2020/08/10/mother-refuses-to-get-daughter-tested-for-covid-19/) and other places.

Sure, but if mitigations are followed, that "sick kid" won't spread the disease.  That is why we have masks, etc.  Sorry you don't trust us teachers.  We don't trust you either, because you are constantly trying to find any reason to stay home while kids are suffering from school failure, depression, child abuse, hunger, stress, obesity, and even suicide.  It is time to open doors NOW.[/quote]

Sick kids can still spread the disease to parents. It happened in my my family to both me and my cousin. So just be aware if your kid gets sick you're probably getting sick too.

And parents like PP will probably spread it in their workplace, grocery store, and other locations before they feel sick enough to realize what Larlo brought home besides math homework.[/quote]
