[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No 62 percent includes NJ, NYC, Ny state, Connecticut, Rhode lsland, Dallas and Charlotte. Today it includes DC public schools and Chicago and Nashville.  You can’t lie your way out of this.  There’s no excuse to not open schools in APS with the amount of risk mitigation and resources  in place.  Again, 3000 kids in Catholic school have been back in Arlington.  Can you tell me how many teachers and kids have died...  thought so.  [/quote]

NYC is elementary only. And very small percentages opted in. DC is INVITATION ONLY for high risk students.  Which is what APS could have done [b]if the entitled in N Arl didn’t insist it is their right to attend in person in the middle of a pandemic.[/b] Many of the system you cite above are open under much narrower circumstances.   Jamestown’s demand for 80% hybrid is a bit harder to accommodate.  [/quote]

That is a soundbite that doesn't take into account the actual population of schools and seats requested. Even though by percentage, North Arlington schools were higher, the actual seats requested from all schools is not all that dissimilar with a few outliers.

School	Hybrid Seats
Carlin Springs	87
Randolph	154
Campbell	185
Drew	188
Montessori	212
Long Branch	215
[b]Barcroft	241
Hoffman Boston	253[/b]
Glebe	257
Nottingham	306
[b]Oakridge	318
Barrett	329[/b]
ATS	329
Tuckahoe	332
ASF	333
[b]Ashlawn	334[/b]
Fleet	338
Taylor	370
[b]Claremont	371
Abingdon	380[/b]
Jamestown	386
McKinley	394
Discovery	403
[b]Key	409[/b]

Data not very helpful without PERCENTAGES.  that’s what dictates hybrid safety. [/quote]

No - the point is, it's not because only North Arlington schools demanded schools be reopened. Hundreds of families at ALL schools did.[/quote]
