I work for a small district near Houston, and we have 200 kids out today- up from 170 yesterday. This accounts for nearly 20% of our kids. I've got about a fifth of my kids out this weel, where I'd usually be only missing a few.

Granted, not all of that is Covid, but it seems like the kind of situation that warrants communicating with your staff. Today it was confirmed,. through the grapevine (as is all information), that the district has no real plans for when they should consider revisiting policies or practices. So, you know, we'll just keep stumbling around in the dark over here. 😡
