Who's hiding? The schools are following guidance and have made changes to their policies as the guidance changes, and they will continue to do so.

I don't want to get into the debate about whether a HS student should wear a mask.
As a parent who has a DC in PK4 -- what is frustrating is that the CDC is issuing this change without providing the access to vaccine for little kids. I get it, some will say the risk of death is small for kids. But hey 1000+ kids died and I watched my neighbor's otherwise healthy 3-yr old sent to hospital by ambulance on Christmas.

NP. Please not assume people that want to get rid of masks that aren’t scientifically proving to be needed are RWNJs. It’s thinking like that that will caring upon a red wave. Some of us Dems have logic and aren’t led by hysteria.


What does being a particular political party supporter have to do with it? Either which way you vote?

It is not because you have logic or smarter than others. It is because you have had COVID in the Jan wave, so it is not in your interest to care others anymore. This explains the shift in the attitude wrt mask. This kind of hypocrisy is out of touch.


I have never had COVID. My teen kid did during Delta though. We thankfully avoided it. But nice try.

Yes it is. Speak for yourself

Would someone who knows please clarify the DC situation- are private schools bound by the mayors order or not? At the start of the pandemic they were except from the social distance 6’ mandate. Still the case?


Private schools are bound by DC Health. Of course they haven't updated their guidance yet. As someone said elsewhere, DC was the only "state" that didn't go by CDC's 5-day isolation rule and instead changed it to 7 days of isolation. Schools like GDS never even updated their guidance to 7 days so anything is possible in this area.

Nope. We will lift, but not when you say so. So just frogging stop already. No one cares what you think

Our school said they were looking into mask optional but because the CDC had guidance to continue wearing masks they couldn’t immediately even after new law passed in Va. I am wondering what they will do now. Hoping they update and make school mask optional asap.
