We, The Parents Of HCPS, Petition For Virtual Learning To Keep Our Children Safe!

Since Covid-19 Has Crossed America-- Most States Have Agreed That Virtual Learning Is The Best Option-- Which They Have Continued. Unfortunately, Harford County Has Seemed To Show Acts Of Normality. Harford County Has Stopped Virtual Learning Amongst Other Things; Like Wearing Masks!

Kick-Off To The New Year, 2022, The Number Of Covid-19 Cases & Deaths RISE More Each & Every Day Throughout Harford County, MD! We Have Fought To Keep Our Children Healthy & Away From The Spread.

However, This Fight Becomes More Difficult As Schools Continue To Stay Open, As Well As Parents Sending Their Children To School With Any Sign Of Illness.

**Remember-- The Covid-19 Vaccine Was Rushed & Pushed Across America Without Hesitation Of Pros/Cons! The Vaccine Was First Available To Adults... Some Children Lost Their Lives Before It Was Made Available To Them.

We Were The Ones Telling Our Children To "Goto School" (Regardless Of The Consequences)

Now-- It Has Become A Fearful Decision For Both Parents & Students To Continue Back After They Have Been Sick With Even The Slightest Cold.

Having Many Children Sent Home Due To "Close-Contact" --

We Find It Necessary To Proceed With This Petition For Virtual Learning Before Further Damage Is Done To Our Student Population.

Citizens, **Understand-- The Vaccine Is NOT Preventing The Spread Of Covid-19. Nor Does It Prevent The Illness Of Variants; Delta Or Omicron.
