[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A number of kids were removing their masks during the day, I’m told.  I witnessed the 6-8 graders putting their masks back on as they left school to catch their rides home.  I was mortified.[/quote]

Wow, I hadn’t thought of this.  Presumably those kids’ parents are expecting them to wear masks throughout the day and haven’t opted out. How are schools and teachers going to enforce it and keep track of who is supposed to mask and who isn’t?[/quote]

Yes I agree our school has not done a good job communicating that they are no longer enforcing masking. Our teachers don’t know which kids have opted out. [/quote]

Right.  If this is about “parent choice” shouldn’t the school be enforcing masking for the families that have opted to continue?  Seems like it should work both ways if the whole underlying premise is parental choice for each family.  Hmm, guess that was actually just a cover for unmasking, huh?[/quote]

There is really no good way to enforce it.  To comply with parent choice, schools need to go mask optional.  Otherwise its too burdensome on the teachers and admin.  Some schools have done that, but most are calling it an opt out and making things sticky.[/quote]
