[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid's DC private high school sent a note at 10:30 last night declaring mask optional. It is evident from this list that different kids have different experiences, but my son was to the moon with happiness as if it was Christmas morning. He is thrilled that the policy has finally caught up with community risk and that he can finish out the year in normal fashion. To those who say we parents are projecting our views on our kids, that is in no way the case in my household and a great many others in my experience. As for DCPS, it seems the teachers' union will have to fold like a deck of cards, albeit against their will. It is a travesty that DC governance is held hostage to union influence and the public school kids are not yet free from forced masking. Each day that the mandate persists, is another day of unjust masking.[/quote]

It is so bizarre that you would center yourself as a private school parent with your cuckoo for cocoa puffs "unjust masking"  and "travesty" rhetoric. You give exactly zero effs what goes on in the lived experiences of public school children and teachers.  :roll: [/quote]

I have just as much right as anyone else to express my views. Your "lived experience" is really just the latest trendy way to say that you alone have superior opinions that cannot be challenged because no one else walks in your shoes.[/quote]

But you do recognize that your opinion, as [b]someone whose shoes never tread the halls of a DCPS school[/b], is less relevant on this thread? [/quote]

Wait, I thoughts DCPS wasn't allowing parents to enter the schools.[/quote]
