[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids wear shirts to school, wear pants and shoes.  They'll wear masks too.  Probably not N95 masks but masks.[/quote]

No, they won’t. Look at the teen board and you will see hundreds of posts from frustrated parents and rebellious teens. I can demand they wear them in my class and then they will ask to go to the bathroom. Some will take them off for a break, others to vape or have time with the SO. At the end of class the 30 students will scatter in crowded hallways to go to 30 other classes. Masks are uncomfortable and most are not going to keep them on all day.

You say they wear shirts and pants. We struggle to get them to wear shirts and shorts to cover their private areas. That’s hard enough to enforce. You think they will all wear masks? [/quote]

Then send them home. Tell them they can’t come back until they’re in a mask.[/quote]

For a global pandemic, you can enforce rules.  [/quote]

Take it up with administrators. As of last year they got rid of detentions, suspensions and didn’t even send the kids home who were high or suspected of selling drugs.  There is not discipline anymore. It’s restorative justice. They would bring them in to speak with them and talk about their feelings. Students know rules don’t really apply anymore. Teachers do not have the ability to send anyone home. [/quote]
