Lee just sent a poll to parents. The framing of the choice and language in the email does not have me very optimistic for anything aside from outdoor removal of masks.
PP- will note that even if I disagree with whatever their decision is, the communications and asking for parental input is very commendable and appreciated. I can’t imagine how frustrating it would be to have radio silence
The voting is an absolute joke. I'd hope Chris and leadership take it as a pulse, and then just follow CDC.

No. You absolutely do not want measurements, that are supposed to be guided by science, to be voted upon by parents.

Omg. If my kid’s charter leaves this up to a vote, I give up.

Aside from "we have to contact OSSE because TTS conflicts with lifting outdoor masking," we've heard nothing.

PP here: not that I think there’s anything wrong with emailing and telling him your preference.

Another Lee parent. I think it’s silly to keep outdoor masking, and I don’t understand the delay, but I trust it will only be another week or so, so what does it matter? Before I’d complain about it I’d remember that I don’t have to be the head of two schools and I don’t know what the issues are that Chris is dealing with. I do know that Chris is not stupid.

They get the DCPS guidance, evaluate it a bit, go over the new plans with teachers and staff, and then tell everyone "aight, here we go."
Basically, people need hobbies.

“Lee Montessori’s highest priority is the health and safety of our students, staff, and community. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we have followed DC Department of Health Guidelines and are currently reviewing their most recent guidance issued for schools. For the time being, masks are still required both indoors and outdoors at our schools. We will engage our staff and community in the coming days and will share decisions as soon as they are reached.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we navigate the changing course of the pandemic together, while keeping our students safe and healthy.“
Have you wrote Chris on the issue? Considering sending an email in support of removing masks, would appreciate some sort of open forum on the issue but am afraid of being labeled some crazy anti-vaxxer (primary parent)
Is there any point? As a primary parent, I feel like we’re at the whim of everyone else and our kids will just get labeled as some weird anti-vax family. We’re boosted and just ready for our kids to do what practically every other district in the country is doing.
