My husband and I are doing the exact same. Everything about what you wrote above is my experience as well. The only difference, my kids are not eligible for exemption. Our state is Red. Our county is blue. It is a total and complete nightmare being on a complete island from people who you thought were your friends yet still can’t seem to see through all the fog. Covid literally only exists in public schools - everything else here is open including county buildings. We fought hard for that win by the way. Good luck, we are exhausted and demoralized.
