[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s no good science on safety for middle and high school. None. When people say it’s safe there, they are talking with no evidence. [/quote]

Apparently neither of you read the news. The Washington post has a news story a day about how schools are running safely. Including middle and high schools. [/quote]

Do you ever read the links in those stories? They aren’t about safety in middle and high schools. Please link a Post article with evidence of safety in middle and high. [/quote]

+1  If anything, all of the reports indicate that the bodies of pubescent and teen children are -more- like the bodies of adults than they are like the bodies of children.  Therefore they merit consideration as adults, not children.  If the metrics aren't good enough for places like the Fed or State governments to be open and functioning regularly in much larger and more spacious environments, then it is hard to understand how you think cramming 30 teens into a teeny tiny room with bad HVAC is going to come out well.[/quote]

The plan isn’t to have 30 teens crammed into a tiny room, so you aren’t credible on this.[/quote]Don't be deliberately obtuse.  People want "normal" and "normal" is 30+ kids in a room.  Even 15 "adult-bodied" kids in one room is too many.  Like I said, until the Fed and States and everyone else is doing it with grownups, we shouldn't be doing it with teens.  The thought is so ludicrous.  They are the one age group capable of self-management.  There is no need at all for the risk.  (The caveat being those of you raising kids to have mental health issues.)[/quote]
