[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm calling it. This policy is BS. Dr. Gayles spent the past year insisting in person schooling is unsafe, now he is digging and going against the CDC and the AAP who recommend policies that actually let kids go to school. And the BOE and the Council will go for it because they have spent the past year trusting this man, who may have done some smart things but really. Kids need to be in school. We'd have more options now if he had made some real effort bring kids back last year before the last second [/quote]

The CDC also recommends many safety precautions including regular testing which isn't being done.  There are zero efforts beyond masking to keep our kids safe.[/quote]

There is an opt-in testing program. I wish it were opt-out, like DCPS is doing, but there is a program for regular testing for unvaccinated populations. There is also a mandate that adults in the building be vaccinated or test weekly. And they are doing outdoor lunch--every school has a plan to have at least some kids outdoors each day. [/quote]

This is against cdc guidelines and only k-6. [/quote]
