[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just a friendly reminder - those of you volunteering your children for surveillance testing, you are the rare ones. The last testing regime only had 18% opt-in, and from what I understand some of that was because athletes were required to do so.

APS families, let's keep it up!  We want under 10% this time.  Fairfax had only 100 out of 179K students.  We can do better by keeping our % down.

I think that will be easy to achieve.[/quote]

Impressive commitment by posters to cheer a lack of testing for no good reason beyond that it seems to assuage their anger about something that most likely has little to do with a voluntary, opt-in, free testing program that doesn't impact anyone.  Not sure who or what they're trying to dunk on, though.  But it seems to make the posters feel better, so that's a good thing.[/quote]

DP.  With Resource Path, the lack of transparency on how their algorithm would avoid false identification of students where a pool test threw a positive result left me uncomfortable with the reliability of their testing methodology.  Has the new company provided more clarity on their testing procedures?[/quote]
