[quote=Anonymous]Completely fine with it. About half of HS students (ages 16+) can get vaccinated today, and I expect by late August this will have expanded to include all HS and 2/3 of MS aged kids. I also think case counts are going to keep plunging, as they have in other places with vaccination rates above 50% (UK, Israel). And like other PPs, I know people in various situations (private schools, living elsewhere) in which kids have attended FT with minimal mitigation (masks and...that's it) and have not seen outbreaks. A lot of the mitigation discussed ad nauseam on here would have been groundbreaking if APS had made it happen for 2020-21: outdoor lunches (and more), widespread testing, upgraded HVAC. They are managing to get all of this in place in time for case rates to drop to where they were last summer, and then lower. By August I think masks will be helpful, to a point, but I am not concerned about my kids being within 3' of their classmates. [/quote]
