Families should have a clear understanding of when to stay home.

Distancing & Masks

Keeping a proper social distance is essential for safety, especially for our unvaccinated youth. The use of masks with fidelity is their best shot right now.

Why we joined

REAL parents, teachers and stakeholders share why they have joined this true grassroots movement to demand change for SAFER schools both for in-person and virtual options.

If it is important for children to be vaccinated for MMR, polio and tetanus to attend school, then it would seem appropriate that there would be a virtual option for children who are not yet eligible to be vaccinated for Covid-19. I joined DC Families for Covid Safer Schools to advocate for a safer in-person plan and for quality virtual option.
