The only ones who will get sick are the unvaccinated / unboosted ones who should keep wearing their masks but won’t. I have been a close contact so many times. Never came up positive. Nor did a student of mine who was a close contact at school ever get it from the kid they were exposed by. Most of us at this point are either vaccinated or had CoVID or both. I preferred the original March 1 date to let numbers continue to dip but honestly this won’t be a big deal. Probably 50% of kids will immediately take the mask off, and more and more will as the year goes on. They’re still required on buses due to federal transportation law.
