What there is, is some epic failure and miscommunication on so many levels and everywhere.
If by sabotage you mean hold people accountable for sickness then yes. People should be getting tested so schools can stay open.
Of course, you're holding everyone else in the quarantined class "accountable" as well...
Stopping the spread? Yes
We have no idea if this policy will do anything meaningful to stop the spread. I think it’s actually going to have a chilling affect on parents being honest about their kids symptoms. Will anyone be tracking the data? If MCPS realizes that, 9 times out of 10, a kid sick to their stomach does not have Covid, will they re-evaluate?

How many students will have to stay home in Zoom school, per each "spread" prevented? If 10 students have to stay home in Zoom school unnecessarily, is that too many? How about 20? 50? 100?
If they are negative they come back. Students who are positive should stay home.

Versus the school system shutting down? You can’t have your cake and eat it too. There’s virtual or testing for schools.

No other district in the country is sending kids home this way. Not in a conservative-located district, nor a liberal-located district. MoCo/MCPS is not smarter than everybody else. In fact, all we've seen is the opposite from the very beginning. Classrooms/kids will be inappropriately held hostage waiting for a single person to get tested (or not). This is terrible, operationally-asinine policy. Yes, they are actively sabotaging in-person.
I mean, kinda? But for vaccinated students who are contacts, FCPS is making them stay home until their adults upload proof of vaccination status and fill out a form confirming they're asymptomatic. MCPS isn't doing that, at least not yet.

Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s sabotage. The opposite is true. If moco wanted to sabotage return there would be no mask wearing or testing for symptoms for a quick return to virtual. You read about other states right?

She is unvaccinated (too young), and that is not allergy or asthma. Teacher or school never asks me to get her tested, but I have already got her tested twice (before day 1 start & today for this week school).
Talk to your pediatrician and document in writing that these are not COVID symptoms for your child

FWIW, my kid woke up vomiting at 1:30am, and I tried to find a rapid test appointment in MoCo through cvs today but none are available.
Are we spiking, or is it always tough to get a test when you need one?
I think it’s always tough, especially for kids. Try a pediatric urgent care or your ped’s office.
Our ped will do a virtual visit this morning to determine if testing is needed, but the results aren’t guaranteed today (it’s a 24 hour window).
^^^
This is why parents will send their kid to school if they look/feel/act fine.
If it’s impossible to get a same day rapid test at cvs, etc. then how will the mcps policy work? It’s likely most people won’t be able to get same day results. I tried looking for an appointment at 2am, and I couldn’t find anything.
Now you're starting to understand why it was a bad idea for MCPS to re-open in-person.
Go to the CVS at 360 Hungerford Dr.. As of this morning, it says that there are still home testing kits available there. Home tests give more false positives, but it's better than nothing while you try to arrange a PCR. Good luck.
I'm really not starting to understand why it was a bad idea. Can you explain? The only bad thing I've seen so far is this incompetent policy designed to sabotage in-person. Is that what you mean?
