Is only strongly recommending masks for 4th thru 12th grades. Kindergarten thru 3rd -no masks. Teachers and staff are required to mask although I don’t know what diff that will make. I’m pretty sure it’s gonna be nearly impossible to keep masks on the kids. And it’s business as usual. And if you don’t like the idea of sending your kid to share all of those germs you are welcome to home school or enroll them in a private school. We pay pretty hefty taxes in this district. I’m wondering why they can’t arrange to have virtual classrooms. Don’t know how this will shake out but I’m very worried about my 4 grands.

I think masks are needed but I'd hate to be a teacher who has to ensure compliance jimfields33 Jul 2020 #2

I suspect a lot of schools will have their own, stricter rules T_i_B Jul 2020 #3
