How long do you feel kids need to cover their faces? Seriously. There is suffering. Luckily in Catholic schools there is a sense of community and love and the kids have been more resilient than public schools, where we are witnessing a severe mental health crisis brought on by a multitude of things like isolation and, yes, masking. But it is happening on a smaller scale and is only a matter of time. Time to let children start to experience normal social interactions with their teachers and peers.
It isn't suffering. I'd love for them to end, but I would never equate a piece a cloth to real suffering. It's a PITA for sure, but the drama drumming has to stop. That is what is destroying community.

+1 Catholic schools have been amazing during the pandemic. my kids are thriving. they've never had a covid test. or had to quarantine. or had to listen and experience the endless fear mongering in this area. they've been in person since september 2020. now it's time to let them unmask and move on completely.

Agree. Hopefully teachers have a choice to unmask too!
Spoken like someone who doesn’t care that one of our colleagues at our DC Catholic school recently passed from COVID.
