An Open Letter To Bishop McElroy to Re-Open San Diego Catholic Schools

Our school is able to maintain CDC requirements, with smaller numbers in the classroom. You will have the cooperation of all who attend. However, if we do not open, our little school and parish may not survive

PLEASE REOPEN. Our children need to be back in school to learn and have normalcy back in their lives. They are scared and need to have the comfort of their school friends and continue to grow their faith.

Please open the schools. Our kids need structure.

please for the spiritual, mental. Emotional, and social health of all children open the schools. They desperately need to come back to a safe and stimulating enviornment.

Yes. Please open schools.

Schools need to reopen!

I strongly encourage our children back to on campus learning.

Please reopen catholic schools

We need our Catholic schools to be open up.

For the mental safety of our children the children need to go back to school and that’s why we put them in Catholic private school so they can have the opportunity to live there catholic life and learn their education and the best way the highest level so please we really need to re-open the catholic school The children need to go back to school all my children are so sad they been waiting foe Aug 19 to go back to school, please we have to do something

There is absolutely no reason why Catholic schools are participating in off campus/distance learning

Re - open schools

I definitely want to resume and fall with my kids

Please re-open schools for our children’s mental health. They need to be in a classroom environment with teachers and peers.

We need to get our children back to scho for their wellbeing and mental health. Please consider reopening schools in fall.

Please open our catholic school

I completely trust SKCS to keep my child safe and to follow all guidelines to keep the children healthy.

I'm petitioning on behalf of my three granddaughters. The COVID19 virus is not at epidemic levels any longer. The online approach should only be a stopgap measure. The relationship with teacher and fellow students is a significant part of the educational process. Online instruction doesn't provide this vital developmental element.

The effects on our children - short-term me long-term for mental health, balance, and education and interaction need to also be a key priority

Kids are suffering from lack of social contact and most will not get the needed attention at home. Families are suffering financially
