I hate to hear this.
Wear the damn masks!
She is being told by many parents that their children will NOT be wearing masks at school.
I don’t understand why this is so hard for Kim and others to understand. The obvious answers are staring everyone in the face. Ockham’s Razor and such.
Crazy how only the most hardcore partisan posters immediately have to go to the WELL YOU ARE AN IDIOT defense.
its almost like they have no basis for their arguments other than latching onto politics because their lives suck.

In Illinois masks are required. Heard a bunch of parents in my building are going to the dr to get notes saying they can’t wear masks. Luckily, our lawyers said if they don’t wear a mask, they ain’t coming into the building no matter what. I know I’ll still have some parents that test me on the first day.It will be interesting if all of them get sent home.
It’s what we are being programmed to think by both sides. The truth is likely somewhere in the middle, but we as a country don’t seem to have a middle any longer. I personally want my kid in school. If him wearing a mask makes the teacher and students feel more comfortable, so be it. I’d have him wear a hazmat suit if he had to so he could go back to school

Common sense eludes many.This is the dumbest shit I've ever seen.
Sigh - OK. Here you go.Wow. That's some real scientific data right there.
May help...
Most likely to...
Try to find an efficacy test that proves masks are effective at spreading Covid-19. I'll help - you won't find one. Sames as SARS and others.

And some people can't grasp analogy.Yep. Not wearing a mask is exactly like walking around pissing on people. Come on man.
And some people can't grasp analogy.
Or mocking people who can't connect an analogy. Or those without a sense of humor. Take your pick.If somebody chooses not to wear a mask but maintains 6'+ distance from others then they are no more of a hazard than anybody else with a mask on. If 2 people without pants on pee on each other then you have an absurd meme that is just trying to mock people who are rational about the whole situation.
Burlington summer school lasted 2 days. Opened on a Monday. Closed on a Wednesday. If we make it two months, we should be in good shape.School will be over in less than 2 months if masks are not used.
No. No that isn't a serious question. No body is anti-school opening. The answer to your question has been given repeatedly my multiple people on here. Stop being willfully ignorant.Serious question.
Do anti-school opening people think there are going to be zero cases? Is that the benchmark to you that if there is a case then you shut everything down?

I want to go back and I would like to ease into it by rotating maybe a quarter of the kids through, like one of the options our Super came out with. Then add more if it goes well. Then add more. Unfortunately, Governor Kim doesn't want to baby step it.LOL...two weeks is all it will take. I mean when we already know what the outcome is going to be at 90% of schools across the nation (thanks to so much community spread) why not just accept that fact and do the right thing out of the gate.
Kids will be emotionally hurt when the rug gets pulled out from underneath them again, I wonder how many suicides and at home beatings this rug pulling will result in...shame on you guys for providing false hope.

In fairness she is somewhat taking baby steps by only requiring 50% of core classes to be in person, and as far as I know, has not interfered with an individual school district's mask policy.I want to go back and I would like to ease into it by rotating maybe a quarter of the kids through, like one of the options our Super came out with.

That is the challenge with this virus, if there is one case in the school there is likely 10 more that are not diagnosed and it will then spread through the school like wild fire through a dry prairie. So yeah, it is kind of how things have to be run unless you just don't GAF about spreading the virus which means you don't care about the deaths that will likely come from the spread to teachers, administrators, coaches, and family/parents of students.
It effing sucks but the virus kind of sets these terms and all we can do is choose to play by those rules or just ignore them all together.
That's what I am hearing too.Don’t the kids know some people are saying it’s patriotic?
My son's summer baseball team had a kid get sick and ultimately test positive for COVID-19. He was fine the Monday after 4th of July at practice and woke up with fever and a cough Tuesday and got tested. Got his positive result Friday, just before we were to go play a tournament. Team pulled out and they'll resume practices next week (the kid kicked the symptoms in a couple days and rest of team tested negative). That's a two-week break for a team of 14 HS aged baseball players.
Obviously school is much more important than a summer baseball team, but that's going to be the challenge. I don't think we're going to see a spike of dead kids by re-opening schools, but the logistics will be a nightmare. Some kids and teachers WILL get it (not necessarily from school), that's just fact. Kids who test positive will have to stay home until they clear any symptoms and get a negative test, as will teachers. Will there be enough subs? Will one sick kid take out an entire class?
I've read multiple things about kids. Little kids do seem to catch it and spread it less, but some of what I've read hasn't had a good handle on "why" - some speculation that being shorter with smaller lungs keeps their spray lower than adult face level with a shorter radius. if that's largely the reason, I wonder how that would apply within a setting of kids. Social distancing will help, but classrooms aren't built for social distancing generally. I've also read some sources that the kid difference starts to fade around 10 and teens/pre-teens are more comparable to adults. We're still learning.
Even if we get kids into schools, there will be disruption. Local schools might have to go full remote if there's a big local outbreak.
