As a vaccinated high school teacher who taught most of the year in a mask, I'd much rather wear a mask all day than have to enforce mask wearing for some but not all students.
I vote for masks for everyone, until it's safe to have no one wearing them. I think that schools need to drop restrictions one at a time, wait see if numbers go up, and then drop something else. Dropping those restrictions that lead to hybrid -- usually distancing and cohorting, first makes the most sense. Once we've had 5 days of school for everyone but the small segment who choose a separate virtual school, and we've kept spread low, then we talk about dropping masks.
Agree
It will never be perfectly "safe" for everyone to go without a mask. That's a ridiculous standard to set. Vaccines have been available for months. Anyone who doesn't get one is taking the risk upon themselves. Responsible people who get vaccinated shouldn't have to wear masks as some sort of supportive safety theater to protect those too irresponsible to protect themselves. We don't ask people to drive 20 miles below the speed limit on highways to "protect" those who refuse to wear seat belts. Enough already.
Why don’t you hold off on all the “enough already”s until all kids can get vaccinated?

You wear a mask to protect yourself just like you wear a seatbelt to protect yourself.

I am a vaccinated teacher and I will continue to be masked indoors because 1) I don’t want to get to get COVID (which you still can get), 2) my spouse is high risk, and 3) I have young kids.
I also don’t want to enforce the mask/no mask policy at work since I would have kids both under 12 and over 12; it would be much simpler to still require them indoors.
It’s very simple to figure out a system to know who is vaccinated or not. Vaccinated kids shouldn’t have to be miserable all day because the school can’t be bothered.
