Agree, not sure what drove that. Is a head scratcher.
Why? Beauvoir closed too? A couple of pre schools have had to close with Covid like illnesses and cases so not a bad choice really.

Actually Key is in person again for Lower anyway. We opted out. I asked DD and she said it’s a slight majority on zoom though.
Key is in person. My child is there today. Requiring negative covid tests. If the test results are back in time, they need to stay virtual. My son wants to go back so he is there. Their virtual program is good so now complaints either way.
I think middle might be hybrid and high school virtual.

Our school is in person and every student who elected hybrid is in class for the next two hybrid weeks. All tested negative last weekend. DC

That's terrific!!! Do you mind sharing who the testing company is. PCR results that fast is great. I'll pass on to our school.

Rapid tests have proven to be much less reliable. At least they're testing.

They also cancelled spring break so their summer will now start 2 weeks sooner (too much risk with spring break travel to bring everyone back). The girls seem to be glad if that change as the seniors do not want to risk having graduation cancelled again.
Good for Madeira! What a thoughtful choice about spring break in order to keep graduation.

And St Andrews. Big mistake for both.
I think the opposite, kudos too both for doing the right thing as the numbers of people dying and hospitalized is only climbing.

SOTI is open on campus for lower and middle. I'm thankful as well.
