[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not all families are in VA for Covid.   Some are, some aren’t.  vA is part of MCPS.  It’s no different from them opening up another in person building.

I am pulling the information from the information we are getting from VA.   If you were involved with VA or even spent a few minutes learning about it you would know it.

[b]If you’d like our kids to return in person for families who choose it due to Covid, what are you willing to do to make it safer for them to return.[/b]

Even if MCPS does away with VA the state is not going to offer one.   How do I know?   Because unlike you, I contacted the state and MCPS to look at all our options prior to getting accepted into VA as a back up plan as we decided as a family our kids were not going in person last fall.   Some of us actually put effort and research into this.  The state of MD approved two programs that are private pay and looked terrible.   Those are the only two options they offered.  There was no live teaching and it was either self taught or videos with periodic check ins.   If you also followed old threads some of us talked about it as we were scrambling on what to do with our kids.   You should research this before you rant and want to shut down VA.

But, again, if you aren’t willing to be part of the solution in keeping kids safe in school, then stop critiquing our choice to keep our kids virtual.  We checked out in person school.  There is no distancing, kids half masked, very limited testing and everything back to normal.   It’s an old building and walking through it I did not see the portable air filters as promised.

Nothing beyond vaccinations. Covid is here to stay, and either you learn to exist out in the real world or you don't. We're looking forward to masks coming off by next school year.[/quote]

Masks can and should stay. [/quote]
