[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PG County just announced they are going all virtual until the middle of January.

Watch the dominoes start to fall.

Why would private schools follow a low performing public school district in continuing a form of education that has been proven to be ineffective and harmful to the well being of children?

In addition to a vaccine mandate, our school is conducting surveillance testing of all students before school starts, as it did in the fall and will continue surveillance testing throughout the remainder of the year.

While virtual is certainly a possibility, it is the last resort and not the first. [/quote]

Well masking isn't exactly the best thing for children, but we're still doubling down on that particular bit of Kabuki theater.

I don't disagree with you about your assessment of PG County Schools, but it's certainly true that part of the metro area is heavy with COVID. Some clusters in MoCo too (Bladensburg cluster has TONS of kids in quarantine right now).

You may be right, and perhaps they won't follow suit, but once the Omicron wave hits the USA in January, I suspect we'll be back in Lockdown City for a while.

My feeling is that people have been successfully primed to act like Chicken Little.

Time will tell.[/quote]
