[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I applaud any school principal that is following the science and acknowledging, unlike the WTU and the city, that kids and teachers can safely return in some capacity. That's leadership. [/quote]

Bringing anybody back into buildings on December 7th with the state of the virus in this country and the climbing rates (without even seeing the 14-17 day full effect of Thanksgiving gatherings) is not leadership.  [b]It's abject idiocy.

But we know you don't care.  Just get your kids out of your house already!!!!![/quote]

Wrong.  No it isn't.  The kids and teachers involved are taking Covid tests at school regularly.  Brent has established clear, smart safety protocols and contingency plans for what happens if a student or teacher tests positive and is implementing them with great care, just like in elementary schools in Europe. Most of the kids in the in-person classes have IEPs, are poor or are ELLs.

You want abject idiocy?  Keeping all DCPS schools all virtual until a vaccine is in wide use although some of the students are hardly learning anything at home for whatever reasons.  DL has been a failure for my kid.  I'm relieved that he's back before a teacher at school in what seems to be as safe as an environment and could be created under the circumstances.[/quote]

DP here. I agree with you. All schools should have reopened. Good for Brent. I hope your son has a better school experience. My kids are falling further behind and hate school. I wish our school would open, but we have a very weak principal.[/quote]
