"We continue to recommend vaccination for all. If your child has been vaccinated, please provide a copy of the form. We will keep it with the other vaccination records. The reason to provide it is so that in the event of a student or teacher testing positive during the year, vaccinated students as close contacts will not be required to quarantine."


This came in an email from the school today on covid policies going forward. Can anyone provide a half decent argument for why unvaccinated students would be required to quarantine if they were a close contact?

If the vaccine doesn't prevent transmission why would one group be forced to quarantine and not the other?

They want jabs in arms and it's clearly not beneficial

One must wonder what's the goal
It's absolutely ridiculous. My older son is looking at colleges, and one of them has a deal where you can visit campus, spend the night in a dorm, and experience campus for a day. Pretty cool really. However, they have all of these disclaimers included about what happens if you catch covid, or are a close contact, etc. They say if you're vaccinated, even if you have symptoms of covid, you don't have to get tested or quarantine. But if you're not vaccinated, even if you've already had covid, you may be required to quarantine for 10 days.


It's maddening the stupidity of these schools!

They do what they are told by people who know what they are doing

This is nuts. I bet there are gonna be school events where the unvaxxed are sequestered.

I could see it playing out this way: have the kids actually wanting to get vaccinated is when the make the unvaxxed where masks while the others don’t. They are going to want to get rid of their mask and start begging their parents to get vaccinated

I would get close contact every 11 days. Skip class and go straight to the parties.

I achieved a 0.8 GPA my first semester on campus in case you were wondering. Got more ass than a toilet seat according to some however.

My workplace has about 8,000 employees. Prior to December 1st 2021 (vaccine mandate) there were 400 positive tests. Between December 1st 2021 and April 7, 2022, there were 1,200 positive tests, they stopped publishing after that.
Once Omicron hit, the vaccines were useless for stopping the spread.

Shouldn't be talking about Covid anymore, period. Don't get tested, don't talk about it. If you're sick, you're sick. Stay home until you're not sick...like people have done, or should do, all the time. Only way this BS goes away.
Agree, but the problem is that the schools aren't allowing this. At the local schools, in order to play sports (depending on the current covid rating, which is currently at "high" as determined by the governor) you have to either be vaccinated, or tested every week. Somehow these idiots, despite all of the other evidence, think that if you've received the jab, you can't contract it or pass it to others. :mad:

I want to say unbelievable that this is still happening, but it's not surprising considering how many of these "responsible" leaders continue to ignore or be unaware of the information we know of in this thread. Hoping/praying that our very liberal school doesn't go that way again. Thankfully, we currently have a conservative governor in Iowa.

It's just amazing to me. There's enough studies at this point for the powers that be to clearly see how ineffective the jabs are. So to make policies based on a crappy vaccine, while also ignoring immunity of people who have already had covid, and recovered, is mind boggling.

I tried to explain this to my wife the other day and she told me I was irresponsible. Kids have had the sniffles and she was clamoring for home tests. I told her no and if they’re that sick then we’ll stay home and not go anywhere. Seems pretty simple.

This is coming from that cunt Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. She has said many times that masks will be worn in schools until the virus leaves the face of the Earth. No virus ever leaves.
The teachers' union was a big reason behind all the shutdowns. Fucked up that basically no one knows or cares about that bullshit. Covid showed me that most of our population are mindless sheep.

Purebloods should just start their own schools within their communities. No mask.. no test just living their best life without the outside noise of politics..form their own events and sports leagues. If these people want to exile unvaxxed kids from society I'd be completely fine with that.. we'll start our own!

This is why we send our kids to private school. We don’t have to deal with any of this garbage. Wife had to get a job to help afford it but so worth it on so many levels

And to that note this seems to be the case for more and more families. The separation between the level of education they receive and the lack of political agenda they deal with, its creating a bigger divide than ever between

Public school was bad enough when we went... I seriously can't begin to imagine how awful they are now

Private is definitely the way to go. So yall don't have to worry about teachers forcing your kids to wear a mask or belittle them to the point they put one on? Curious to see how the private school handles between the vaxx'd and pures

Unfortunate around here that the private schools are just as bad if not worse than the public schools in regards to Covid policies and race relations. Wife and I have a huge disagreement on school choices for our kids but I refuse to have my money support the policies the private schools are pushing.

I have one child (out of 4) left in private school because he needs a little extra help. But last year i had to tell the principle that we weren't doing any Covid testing and that he would be coming to school ready, willing and able to learn and if she wanted to have him removed from campus that was her prerogative. She is the one that sent the email in my original post in this thread. The covid worshippers are really like a cult. I just don't understand, when the "vaccine" doesn't prevent spread, how it matters to another individual if they are vaccinated or not. There is no logical jump that can be made to justify that statement.

Another private school my kids went to established a board that was basically an anti-racism / reparations board that was supposed to help the school apologize for its "racist past." They continually give "scholarships" to kids that "qualify" by not being white. In other words, white kids pay full tuition while non white kids get subsidized tuition paid for by the white people. (obviously its a huge lib school)

I just can't have my hard earned money going to support that no matter how "good" a school is supposed to be. Quite frankly its disgusting to me. Wife kept trying to get me to split tuition with her parents but i adamantly refused saying that if she / they wanted our kids to go there then they would have to foot 100% of the bill.

Anyway, I'll end my rant. Wish we had more private school choices around here but to be honest the public school are great in our neighborhood and I'm fine with that.

You're awesome. Thank you for standing up for what is right, and not just going with the 'easy', politically correct garbage that the media is pedaling. Next time I'm out your way, definitely buying you a beer! Cheers my friend!

The “top” school in Huntsville is like that and very “progressive”

Where my girls go they don’t tolerate any of that. It’s not considered the best of the private schools but still far and away better when it comes to providing an education than anywhere else in town.

Anyway, I’ll see you in October and look forward to it. Also I dropped a message in the crypto Discord when you get a chance to check it, but I’m not feeling any urgency on doing anything right now unless you are
