Thanks Dr. B. it's not inflation, it's equity!!! BRAVO!!!

I hope you make it possible for high school kids to do their classes online next year if it helped them this year.

Dr. Braband, get in touch with reality. How can you possibly say that FCPS is not behind?! Are you serious right now?

Why can’t we allow those who are ready to return to return and allow the people who aren’t to stay virtual for the rest of the year - 4 or 5 days? People are already sending back their kids & some aren’t because they can’t make the changes in routine of the hybrid work. My kindergartener & my 2nd grader are struggling being virtual after experiencing & realizing how much better in person is for them. It’s a night & day difference. And I stay home & help my kids in their work. I can’t even imagine how kids without constant parent support have been surviving.

That Superintendent is useless. Get him out of there

[Megadog]

Why not call the private schools in Fairfax County and ask them how they are dealing with kids in the classroom?

[sarahemmett]

Noone of "our size and complexity" in this state

[hannahstephens]

This doesn’t sound right to me or other kids to make us go back at all that believe it’s easier to do there classes online I thought that y’all were going to do the same thing you did this year which is to go in two days a week which is a waste of time or stay home for the whole school year.

You guys should join politics because you guys will probably do better there with all the procrastination and germ phobia you guys carry Kids with special education need, disability, and pre-k and kindergarten are extremely behind because of your schedule. They need human interaction.... there is no substitute for that, they are not getting that at home, because parents do not stay 24-7 at home... By denying them in person.... it is equivalent to nurses denying patients... You guys are denying them with full of political explanation...and germ phobia mindset.... No, I do not agree with you.... Besides all of you are vaccinated anyway.. and still playing this politics...
