Kids 12 and under are not even supposed to take the vaccine. We're looking into options for our grandchildren. Calling different private schools to see if they demand masks. Might end up homeschooling them, if necessary.

"Masks should be worn indoors by all individuals (age 2 and older) who are not fully vaccinated. Consistent and correct mask use by people who are not fully vaccinated is especially important indoors and in crowded settings, when physical distancing cannot be maintained."
Homeschool!!! No teacher will ever understand or care as much about your kid as you.
Go to HSLDA, Home School Legal Defense Association, their site has a lot of information for those who are new.
Most families I know who pull their kids from institutional inoctrinal day care (aka school) benefit from a year of "unschooling" to deprogram the lies and get in touch with their learning styles, teaching styles, interests, talents, families, nature and God.
Then, armed with an idea of best schedule, subjects of ease and challenge, you can go to Cathy Duffy reviews to check out different sorts of curricula. Note that first graders only need ONE hour per day of book learning, and this increases 15-20 min per day per year after that. The rest of the day can be enrichment, museums, teams, play, volunteering, deep dives into whatever topics interest them, play, life experience, libraries, play, nature exploration, etc.
Once a child has mastered a subject there is NO NEED for hours of repetitious boring homework and worksheets, only occasional review in loops later on.
There are great curricula out there, some with very Christian focus and others more secular, leaving the biblical education to you. From living history books (Sonlight/Bookshark, Charlotte Mason), practical readers (Abeka), great classical literature (Memoria Press), tofreestyle unit studies (Konos), there are choices that fit everyone, and students can direct some of their own learning paths, which gets them much more engaged. There are even curricula that bring back home ec, shop class and other electives long lost in the institutions. So any foreign languages you want, you can learn along with them, set up music or other lessons anytime during the day that works, take vacations whenever you want (sweet, sweet off-season discounts)... And don't forget CURSIVE!
Homeschool groups and co-ops form quickly, and depending where you are they may already be established, to provide expertise in subjects you'd like help with, companionship for the children, field trips, park outings and sports teams or clubs.
