Stop the testing.
Problem solved.
Schools are little germ factories...trying to prevent viruses from hopping around is impossible...IDIOTS
It’s the parents complying, so why should I care?
Parents should keep the kids home until after Sept. 11. If the school keeps losing money from absent students, they’ll do away with the masks.
too bad public education doesn’t react when 3 or more students fail education standards.
traditional education is no longer the objective.
Welcome to America muchachos and muchachas!
If you’re not homeschooling yet, what the hell is your problem?
Just say “no”
Kids have little risk of serious complications particularly with the newer less virulent strains nor were that at risk with the initial strain of COVID. I’d be more worried about a TB outbreak from all the thousands of illegal alien kids who come from areas with endemic TB and who have never been screened for any diseases. As for masks, the schools might as well pass out acifidity bags for all the good masks do. Have you ever seen school age kids correctly wear a mask back in the mask mandate days?
Not too surprising. You can’t get more left-wing than Montgomery County, Maryland.
And you watch... every mask wearing/complying student will come down with the virus!
The kids should ALL say “NO! You fooled us once, we did what you said, wore masks, kept our distance, washed our hands, and yet we ALL got covid! We refuse to wear the horrible things again since they DO NOT WORK!”
What are they gonna do? Expell everyone?
These “three or more” people, have they died? Are they in the ICU? Are they still hospitalized? Have they gone to their doctor? Do they show any symptoms? Do they only claim a positive test result?
Come on, school district. If you believe the virus to be so lethal and dangerous, why aren’t the schools shut down and teachers salaries slashed for the days of non-work? 5.3% would be a start.
EC
There’s no emergency powers under which to enforce this. IMHO it then becomes a 1A violation, the State has no business telling you to wear face garments. They are not proven to provide any benefit, if anything, the opposite.
Just don’t comply and sue the school if they retaliate.
Home schooling bump.
The public schools are child abuse—in so many ways.
Also masks DO JUST ABOUT NOTHING to prevent Covid.
And the masks were NEVER designed for children, (with developing lungs), who are FORCED to wear them for 8 hours a day.
The above article also noted an increased risk for mask wearers to get RSV, partly because the masking prevents children developing natural immunity to other illnesses.
