Affecting their mental and emotional health!!! My daughter personally and successfully intervened on two teens considering suicide during this time. This is not a coincidence!

I am very concerned about the quality of education these kids are getting with a hybrid. There is no reason they couldn’t safely go back to school full time.

How fortunate that so many trained public health officials and epidemiologists have come together to ensure the privileged can get back to their normal lives. The mitigation plan and precautions appear to be effective, so let’s dial them back and see what the bare minimum is that has to be done. While we are at it, let’s dismiss the already watered-down CDC guidelines as optional, and subsequently irrelevant. Then we can all complain about how terrible our lives are when the school has to close down completely for the fall and winter. Rock solid plan.

It is the responsibility of adults trained in different fields to do whatever it takes to return children to a full curriculum.

I am in full support of the students returning to full day in person instruction. As a mental healthcare professional I have seen first hand what isolation can do to children and it isn’t good. The kids need to be back in school not only to keep them from falling behind the rest of the country academically but also for their social and emotional health. I understand the teacher’s are concerned for their safety but all essential workers are taking a risk when they go to work.

Our healthcare system is much better suited now to handle COVID. Time to move forward and get our kids back in the best teaching environment we know of... with our great Western Springs public school teachers!

Kate you are incorrect. This data is straight from the CDC. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html?fbclid=IwAR2g-a3K6oV6GqH3sJn8LobgrBDTcZFJZbUJaynsU5kFKKBSpX_vSrdMKxs

The kids are ready for all day, five days a week. They’re following the rules and keeping masks on. Let’s give them the chance to go back all day, five days a week.

Please fully re-open D101 schools. The short term and long term damage to our youth will be irreversible. It’s been almost 7 months since we shut down in March. It’s time to get them back into school full time!

Get the kids back in school!! Too easily distracted at home, parents aren't trained to teach!
