[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean if we are seeing 16% positivity rate in JUST these handful of CARES classrooms what will it look like with double triple, etc the students....

And non CARES will have more interaction, these kids are just sitting looking at a computer...[/quote]

It’s not a “16% positivity rate.”  It’s about a 1.3% positivity rate, with no indication of school-based spread.

So 85% of classes stay in-person while others go remote temporarily.

So?  [/quote]

And just to clarify, percent is a measure that allows comparison between two groups that are not equal in number.  So there’s a good chance that tripling the number of kids will not change the positivity rate.  It might triple the number of cases, but the percent will remain the same.  Hence why we use rates as a measure instead of raw numbers.[/quote]

The way schools work tripling the number of cases will lead to more than triple the number of closures.  There will be adults traveling from class to class (sped, ell, specialists, Ot, pt, slp, subs, lunch coverage,admin, etc). If one of them gets covid or is a close contact other rooms are going to have to close.  Dcps is not intending on maintaining tight cohorts. Sped is even being told we can pull kids out of different cohorts into our classes for services.  This type of stuff is going to shut down more rooms if something happens. [/quote]
