[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It won't matter at our school. I'm convinced that even if they lift the mandate, our school admin and most teacher and families will choose to continue masking. And I'm not going to force my kid to mask, so they will also continue masking because it will be what everyone in their class is doing. The explanation will be that there are immunocompromised people around (it won't matter if these are really people with a Covid vulnerability -- there are people at our school who are convinced they are more vulnerable because they have a relative with heart disease or their thyroid is sometimes out of whack). Since they dropped the outdoor mandate, I've seen exactly 1 unmasked teacher during pick up and zero unmasked parents. And this is outside. It doesn't matter what DCPS does. The people at our school have convinced themselves that masking is the only way to protect themselves and others, and that we should do it until there is no more Covid at all. I just don't know what to say anymore.[/quote] I would switch schools. I want my kids to go to school with the kids of sane people.[/quote] Working on it. It’s been awful watching this unfold. I would never have guessed this last year. I think people have become very entrenched in a “position” on masking that is removed from rationality. It’s no longer a decision to be made. It’s just: masks=good, no masks=bad. The end.[/quote]
