I have been receiving info about changing mask/COVID testing guidance from my son's school. The latest is that unvaccinated kids must be tested for any activities done outside of school hours. In his case, this is orchestra ... So concerts, and practices held outside normal hours (probably leading up to a concert).
I. AM. PISSED.
First, this isn't what we agreed to. Second, only unvaccinated???? Are you F'n kidding me????!!!!! Third, this is just one more 'boil the frog' move.
Current plan: go to HS tomorrow and be the crazy lady they can't deal with. Pull my kid from orchestra, demand accomodations to be allowed into a different class/elective in the time slot.
This is probably 80% rational. I could use some strategy angles. I'm open to suggestions... Momma-bear is in full attack mode, which is not always helpful.
If you know your community shares similar values with yours, host a school meeting and bring them to their knees.
Tell them they either remove restrictions or you will all pull your children from their school systems.
Tell them that if they go down this route you will not return your children until school leadership is completely replaced.
Watch them shit their pants.
Remember these are public institutions that are suppose to serve their local communities. If they can't do that then their facilities have out lived their usefulness and should be outright replaced.
They serve you, not the other way around. Never forget that.
My community is pretty liberal, I'm surrounded by BLM yard signs. I know we're out there, but I don't know who is the problem.
I agree though, we have to remember that these people are supposed to support the community, not dictate their rules.
