[quote=Anonymous]Many parent have good reason to suspect DCPS is slow walking testing and downplaying outbreaks to deflect from persistent case spikes early in school year  They've never remotely come close to hitting the stated targets for testing, which is kind of straight from the Trump playbook.  The just incessant inane  flex over their non-response with pointless "Re-open strong" bs.

Kids who don't feel well get sent home without testing.  Siblings remain in class.  In the rare cases where testing actually does occur it takes up to a week to get results with no information in the interim or follow up with contact tracing where appropriate.  No one can be considered a "close contact" because they blindly assert that masks are uniformly worn and perfectly fitted at all times no matter the real world application.  The so-called HVAC improvements are overblown, unevenly distributed and often insufficient.  Very few children get to eat lunch outside even in perfect weather.

If you plant your head in the sand I guess you can honestly say 'I don't see a cloud in sight', but how dumb would you have to be to believe anything they say?

This all goes back to the Mayor's effort to expedite reopening and downplay necessary pandemic response measures.  She owns all of this.[/quote]
