Yes. Any social time is better than absolutely no social time.
So happy a lot are sending kids to school
Yes, my kids school never shut down.
Yep and sheās not wearing a mask either. These kids have been through enough.
As king as crt us not being taught.
Yep. First year of preschool for my little dude
My 9 year old is doing virtual. He is unable to wear a mask all day and our one year old has only 1 1/2 lungs.
Survived it last year.
We re still doing this?
Do whatās best for you and yours
Yes so many kids will be repeating the same grade again just sad
Assuming youāre in the us? In the uk we donāt have a choice. But itās life going back to normal for us now all being well. All restrictions being lifted
We have no virtual option
Homeschooling again. I wonāt force my kiddos to mask up for that long daily.
I didnāt send mine last year but we are all vaccinated now so they went to Summer school (to make up some credits they didnāt get from remote learning last year) and are going this year.
If complete virtual is an option again this year, my daughter and I agree that she will do that again this year.
Nope, homeschool year 3 already planned.
So far until further notice
Theyāre forcing it, here in Texas
Yep sure did. My son started back yesterday.
Back to school nxt week!! last yr, went full ur, no problems
Mine were in school last year and will be this year also.
In New York there not offering virtual learning this coming school yr
Yup. And heāll be masked up.
Yes. I gave her a Choice. She wants to go.
Nope. Mine loved virtual. We permanently switched to 100% online school
Yes mine are going. They need socialization. They need normal. They need friends. And recess. And learning.
Hell yes. They need to get out of my space.
If I could choose, no.
No. Homeschooling again. My son has bad allergies that wear down his immune system. Before covid he was sick every week he was in school from fall til spring. Minus school breaks.
Heās staying home until he can get vaccinated at least.
There is a huge difference between home schooling and virtual learningā¦ you are not a home school teacher if your child is virtually learning with their own teacher. Please dont take away from parents who actually homeschool an teacher their kidsā¦ its not just turning on an ipad for them.
I do not home school but i personally know parents who do an they put alot into what they do. Parents who do school provided lesson plans with their kids are not home schooling.
Yes! Mine has already had covid (of course they can get it again) only one had symptomsā¦they are more likely getting infected from us getting gas at the gas station or from the grocery storeā¦and my kids were hurt more from no school than having the virus itselfā¦but you do what YOU think Is best and safe for your.littlesā„ļø
I will be sending my son - he starts secondary school and in my opinion, any day in school is better than none so even if there is another lockdiwn he will have had at least some time in school - kids need that - they need to interact, to grow socially, to learn with others - being isolated is so bad for their mental health and overall development I wouldnāt dream of keeping him away unless I absolutely had to
Iām on the fence too since my state made it a law schools can not mandate face mask and my 9 year old has asthma and unable to get vaccinated. I live in a state full of unvaccinated loons so I donāt think this will end well. Itās like playing Russian roulette with my childās life and I hate it.
I think every parent and child is different. Do what is best for your children how you see fit. As long as your children are thriving screw what anyone else says!! Your children your business!!Home Scbool is not a bad thing. Some people think itās bad for their social life. I personally disagree. Children go to school to learn! Thatās it!! Social life is for parents to tend to at home imo children whom are homeschooled do just as well as in public schools and a lot of times even better than public school. People say oh well they are around other children thereā¦ yea and that comes with a lot of bad influences too. Children can socialize with other children outside of school. Their social wellbeing is not at risk just because they are homeschooled.
We have no choice in Chicago unless your kid has medical proof they cannot attend in person.
My son has skipped 3 levels in reading because he maintained in school learning. A lot of children do not thrive in an at home education. Do what you think is best for your kids thatās all that matters.
I am not a teacher. My kids will be going to school to be taught by professionals
My kids never stopped in person except when they had spring break in 2019 and wasnāt allowed back bc the schools closed. As soon as they opened my kids went back. They also didnāt wear a mask and wonāt be this school year and theyāre not getting the shot either
absolutely! my daughter went all last year except for one month when we had a short lockdown. Itās important for them to have as much normalcy as possible and my daughter wants to go regardless. However if they try to mandate and force vaccines for school kids that where I draw the line and she will be taken out
Hell yes Iām sending them they went all last year in person as well and without a mask and vaccine
I am. My daughter did OL last year and she hated it. Missed her friends.
My son is starting pre k. So both will be going. They NEED interaction.
Elementary school is what concerns me. And in Broward county, Florida, covid is bad. My girls will be wearing masks and hand sanitizer. Iām nervous af
I am. Itās his senior year and heās fully vaccinated. If he werenāt vaccinated, he would not be going in person. Florida is crazy, right now, and masks arenāt mandatory in schools in my county.
In my town they had the kids in school full time the whole yr. I kept my kids out because I didnāt want them wearing masks. This yr coming they said school will resume with no masks and no social distancing. If anything changes and they want masks again Iām not sure I will keep them in. Itās just not normal and itās not good for them. I am not afraid they will catch it nor are they. My 15 yr old was in an enclosed car for 8 hrs with someone who was positive and even shared a drink with them and she didnāt catch it. We take our vitamins and wash our hands and havenāt had any issues. Weāve celebrated every holiday and even had a huge wedding indoors and no issues with anyone. I do know lots of people who got it and they said it wasnāt any worse than anything theyāve had before. I also know a lady who is 102 and got It and she said it felt like a cold. Not saying itās not real but itās Def not what they have been saying. I donāt think many people are gonna tolerate another lockdown which I here might be happening. I work in the medical field, a virus doesnāt disappear, there is no cure for any virus and never has been. This is here to stay. I also will never take the shot nor allow my kids or anyone in my family. I just donāt trust it. It was made too soon ans there are so many reports or deaths and bad reactions especially teens getting it they are getting myocarditis (inflammation of the heart). No thanks.
Yes maāam. My kids went in person all last year except the last 6 weeks due to mandatory school closures. I live in Manitoba canada and our school only had 2 cases the entire school year.
We are sending our oldest. Our youngest is only 4. They donāt wear masks and allow them to play and interact. Itās nice. Yes there will be another shut down. Because the people allow it. Here in the south of the USA, weāve resumed per normal.
Nope. Too many fools in this country. Iām doing a tuition based online k to 12 academy. My kids wonāt be guinea pigs for Delta
My kids went to school thru this whole thing (except when it was mandatory shut down ofcourse) so yes they will be going backā¦my husband has been a essential employee the WHOLE time delivering in one of the biggest hot spots oh yea and we also has our 4th child 5 months agoā:smiling_face_with_three_hearts: dnt be scared of the plandemic
My son put his kids back in their private school in March. The kids are social distanced in their classrooms. The all wear masks students & faculty. My oldest is vaccinated but his 9 year old brother is not. They will both go back to school wearing masks
Im in uk and our kids have been back on and off since last September
He went back in seat last year as soon as he was able to and hes going back in seat this year.
Mask are optional this year except for the bus, which is only for in the morning, I pick him up After school
Yes, we both have to work and live far from any family to have him homeschool.
My kids went all last year and will this year as well.
My son wonāt do homeschooling so heās going
I am still on the fence
Yes here were i live its all full instruction
Yes, and heās going maskless (gasp).
These mfs are going to school
Yep. They are going back
My baby is going to school.
And yall should read this link.
The WHO and CDC and many others are in big trouble.
SEND THEM!!! ā¦BUT BUT do your homework on online or homeschooling so your ahead of the curve !!! Just be prepared send them and have a game plan on the IFs and unknownā¦reach out ā¦ask questions find homeschool groups ā¦watch and learn gathwr data !!!
HELL YEAH
NO MASK EITHER
time to live life
And many schools forcing kids to wear masks which are not good for kids for that many hours
Thatās besides them trying to shove masks on kids and put em in boxes and shitā¦no, kids should not be subjected to concentration camp style shit to go to school.
No Iām homeschooling
My kid was in person last year and will be this year as well. And no masks!! Just making sure they get the normal childhood we all had. No reason they need to be a part of all of this. Itās caused enough damage already. And I swear if people start doing the āfirst day ofā¦ā Pictures at the beginning of this year and do it with masks on their kids damn faces again im going to be ill. Freaking weirdos.
Yep! Thereās zero covid here.
Yepā¦heās going
.life goes onā¦
Iād home school them to skip the indoctrination
Yes!!! Come get these kids please!
Iām keeping my youngest home, but my oldest will be going back to school now that sheās vaccinated. If you are looking for a place to start, Iāve compiled some resources and saved them in my group
homeschooling with curriculum Ive chosen now for 6 years, I have a 15 yr old 10th grader who is involved in sports and co ops, not missing out on a thing
Public school for us
Just send them and stop living in fear it isnāt healthy.
Yes. They start tomorrow.
I wish we could send ours. Two of them did ok with homeschooling last year but one did so badly she had to go to summer school. Sheās hyper and needs face to face. The problem is our school will not send transportation because we live on a very steep hill and for them to get to the nearest bus stop they need to walk down a few back roads that are very narrow and have blind curves. Basically asking for them to get run over. Then once they get to town they have a lot of busy streets to cross before they get there as well. I canāt drive them because I have six kids and only a small car. So weāre stuck.
Our kids went last year from the beginning of the year (Texas) They go back on the 11th this year. No masks this year either!!
We are not . The cases are soaring right now . Another year of homeschool for us.
yup were in fl. there not gonna be. shut down and they dont need to wear masks
Weāre doing in school. Online last year was way too much for us
Yep! 5 weeks to go!
Also, they were in person last year except for a month when our province was in lock down. Our kids do better in school then at home.
Yes! My oldest is going to kindergarten!
I wish I had a choice. Especially last year. But my husband and I both worl 1st shift so we would have to hire a teacherā¦ Just cant afford it. Really hoping they dont have to wear masks again this year though. My daughter was miserable. And it sucks to not be able to fix it and stay home. Shit, we barely make bills being a 2 income familyā¦
Yes! We were in school all last year in person!
Iām having my son do independent study for kindergarten this year because thereās been more outbreaks where we live and the school isnāt going to make the kids wear masks at recess and none of these kids are vaccinatedā¦ My fiance has a heart condition as well, I just donāt want to put anyone at riskā¦ I feel horrible though because this will be the 2nd year my son doesnāt go 2 school and itās only his 2nd yearā¦
We have been back in person since last year. Masks have just now been mandated again for this year . We are perfectly fine with how theyāve handled everything in our district.
Yes! My kids did not do well with virtual learning at all.
Sending mine back. They did virtual all of last year. I hope things donāt get shut down again, but if they do we will just go with it.
There more than likely will not be another shut down because at least 70% are vaccinated. But yes I do plan on sending my 14 year old to school. Itās his 1st year of high school and itās important for their growth to be around peers. Having them at home all the time is dangerous for their development. My almost 2 year old still goes to daycare ad well.
We didnāt have a choice but to send them back in person. The district was considering a school for virtual students only but they didnāt receive the funding for it so there was no other choice but to send them back in person. Their first day was yesterday .
Yes, heās going.
Send them until they shut down, is my plan. They need socializing and structure to grow.
Did virtual for over a year. Both my boys will be back on campus this school year. They need that socialization and one on one with the teacher. My oldestās grades started to fall being virtual. Masks optional here in Florida.
Both my children attended school last year unless it was mandatory remote learning. I donāt know what your Covid numbers are, but we are trying to keep our childrenās lives as normal as possible ( with respecting Covid rules/guidelines). My kids need social interaction with their peers. One of my sons has been fully vaccinated and my youngest doesnāt qualify. So we just try to be as careful as we can.
Yep definitely. My oldest son needs that one on one especially since he has ADHD and autism. We tried the whole virtual school all last year, but he just didnāt wanna do it and didnāt really pay attention. And although, he was in Pre-K last year, he is going to kindergarten this year, so that one on one is going to be helpful for him.
We were in school all last year and back this year. Feel bad for those who are not. We are pretty back to normal. Masks last year but we are all kidding yourselves if you think teens wear them correctlyā¦lol. no major outbreaksā¦ but we offer virtual to families with medical concerns. Nearly all who did choose virtual last year are returning this year.
Yes Iām sending them. Even if there is another lock down Id like my kids to be able to socialize and learn in school and be normal for a few months before it all goes to hell again
We done virtual learning last year because of mask being required. This year mask are optional, so heās going to school, if they decide to mandate again, we will go back to virtual learning, he doesnāt want to wear a mask so Iām not making him.
My daughter just starting her first year of school this fall and yes Iām sending her in person.
We did homeschooling last year. This year they will be going to school. They need that interaction and school setting.
No. We are going with homeschooling or one of the virtual schools. My oldest has health issues and is immune compromised so it is not worth the risk. She did fabulous last year being virtual so we feel this is the best option for our family.
Yes! We did remote learning all last year and the end of the year before and it was HORRIBLE! I have 5 kids ( 3 elementary and 1 going into prek) and they absolutely need to go to school and be taught properly (not by me whoās also chasing todderls) and they desperately need the social interactions as well as I needing my sanity
