[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who at each school is checking the database?
It would be great if all those "central office" policy makers showed up at schools to check kids in. But my guess is that they just said "everyone needs a negative test to come back to school" and then put up their "out of office" email and left for break.
So tired of people who never worked in an actual school making all these decisions for us.
What an impending disaster.

The same people who check the Shield T3 test results (at my school, that’s the principal and AP.) And everyone flags a positive case which would also, I assume, be the case here. I truly don’t understand why some people on this board are making it sound like such a crazy difficult plan. And you’d really prefer we didn’t do ANY testing so everyone can merrily spread Covid and … what? What’s the benefit to that? I want my kid at school on Wednesday so I’m hauling my ass down to his school to pick up a testing kit and then I’m going to test him on Tuesday 🤷‍♀️[/quote]

Yes DCPS is a s*** show of planning

But the folks who write anything on DCUM have access to their school to get the test and upload to a website.

Is the “outrage” that pos kids will sit next to your DC or that you are worried poor/non native students will be turned away? We know most of you are in ward 3 so the must see grandma in aspen folks can have the nanny watch jr if they are pos.

I’m sure DCPS has kicked the how to screen kids into school down to the schools so our hard working administrators get to worry about what to do on their break and then come back Monday morning and implement a plan in 48 hours (while managing their kids at home, screening teachers etc)

To be fair to DCPS they couldn’t have planned for omnicron in November because a) it didn’t exist and b) all variants were covered by the vaccine and c) kids were being vaccinated

DCPS and WTU clearly aren’t pushing for virtual so find another think to moan and groan about. I’ve spoken to 5 different teachers over the break (not all DCPS) and they are dreading the return to virtual.
