If you want to keep your kid on lockdown at home March 2020 to August 2022 - almost 2.5 years, for a virus that killed 2 kids in VA and 0 in DC, go for it. Pay for virtual school or home school. Whining on here like a neurotic person won't change a thing.
You're welcome to not read it. Weirdo.
"Weirdo"?? How childish.
Obsessively ruminating about the possibility of your kid dying of something no child ever died of in DC is neurotic. More kids died from shootings. Will you keep your child home until we are gun free too? How about vehicle related deaths - never allow to ride in a vehicle? People died on METRO - never ride the subway?
These things aren't comparable. 0 kids dying in DC mean nothing. We have a new variant that is killing kids. What do you think will happen when we send our unvaccinated kids to school in person?
Then PP will rationalize it and say: "Oh, they're kids from Anacostia, they must have been obese with medical conditions and no access to proper healthcare."
No kid died from COVID in Anacostia. Lame. Dont wave the Anacostia flag.Assuming you are 250k+ HHI, go pay for virtual instruction. Or buy workbooks and home school. All better.
Sigh. Don't participate if you can't read, PP.
Participate in what? Your make believe conversation with me that you actually quoted
, like playing pretend, about a kid in Anacostia dying of COVID who did not? I can read all that, but doesn't make it intelligent.

Then you've read and listened wrong. It seems to be more virulent in unvaccinated patients than previous strains. As hospital cases would tend to show.

Cancelled classes for 2 weeks.

That's exactly the reason I started this thread. My kids did well in remote learning last year, and I keep leaning more and more towards pulling them for virtual school. I wish DCPS would run it, since I feel strongly about public schools. I'm also concerned about people in my same situation that can't afford to do a private online school.
oh ffs. if you “feel strongly about public school” don’t try to ruin it. you’re the worst.
So what exactly am I supposed to do? Send my kid in person when I'm not comfortable doing so? That's not commitment, that's stupid.
x1000 Forget about the person you're responding to, PP. That person is willing to do anything for schools to reopen even if it means sacrificing their kids. The rest of us are with you.
no, you’re living in a completely irrational bubble. go ahead and shut down public schools again - just don’t have the freakin’ gal to claim you feel “strongly” about the value of public school.

you know that no child has died of covid in DC?
So, would you like one of ours to be the first? Kids ARE dying of covid. Schools were largely closed or hybrid so that helped keep our kids safe.
false. rates of covid were lower or the same for kids in school vs at home.

unless you pull them for flu, rsv, only take the bus … it’s pretty irrational.

School means nothing. The majority are at risk of Covid exposure even if school is closed.
