Not true. They dropped it as of March 7.

What is Breakthrough doing about masks? I think they recently had a meeting about it. They have pretty sane leadership.

LA just announced masks not required indoors. It will be funny when a handful of charter in DC are the only schools worldwide still insisting on this.

Anyone from DCB here? I’m curious how the school has responded to these changes

PP here. Unsurprisingly, this is exactly what happened! If you'd like investment tips, I'm available.
Where? At a number of schools, this hasn't happened.
If you provide a 50/50 investment advice, you might not be great at that.
PP. This was from a discussion about Inspired Teaching, back closer to the beginning of this thread. They announced today that masks are no longer required outdoors, 11 days later.
and hey, they aren't dropping the indoor mandate, maybe ever. Will you make a prediction there as well?
(Jeff required that all charter masking discussions be in this thread, btw)

I am annoyed that they surveyed the school community. There are way too many uber anxious parents for this to have arrived at a rational result. The admin should have just been leaders and made an actual evidence based decision. If they don't make masks optional after spring break, we might be in the running for the last school in the country still masking...
+1 and we are probably at the same school. It's the first time the school has ever asked parents for their input and I think it's because they know they will get the response they want which is to keep masking for the rest of the year. The school has not followed science and acts like it is still March 2020. They excitedly announced that they were stopping temperature checks and taking down the plexiglass partitions which have done nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Regardless of all that it makes NO sense to keep kids masked while rest of the world and DC run around without masks. Choice is just that -- let the scared parents or the ones that haven't vaccinated their kids wear mask and let my vaccinated child follow the science.
I think we're talking about multiple schools here. Which, at least maybe makes the PP feel like we aren't alone?

The majority of charters have not yet dropped masks indoors or out. Hopefully your accounts are doing well nonetheless.
