Daughter has a confirmed positive in her Algebra class. Daughter has had 1st vaccine dose and wears a mask everywhere and sits on the other side of the room from the other girl, so I'm not super worried. I'll get some at home tests today and test her over the weekend. Last time she was in the same room with her was Tuesday.

Yeah, my son was considered close contact exposure, and is too young for the vaccine.  He tested negative and is symptom free.  He masks up religiously which makes him a good human being in my book

KXAN named him this morning.  He appears to be a former student, class of 2020.  Former WR on the football field if HUDL is correct. 

Think Sark can sign him?  We need some WR help.

I can't imagine being a football, volleyball, or band parent right now.

Why just those three?

Because those are the main "in season" sports right now with large quantities of kids together in close spaces all the time. 

I guess I should also add cheer to the list. My daughter's best friend is a cheerleader (freshman, no pics) and caught covid from cheer camp before school even started.

My kids are soccer and band.  13yo is vaxed.  11yo will be vaxed when he turns 12 in a couple of weeks.

So far no issues on their teams or in their classes.  Their school has had 5 total positives reported since 8/12.

Well you listed two sports and the half time entertainment so that threw me

Jesus tried to save them by giving them people smart enough to create a vaccine. They just don't want to listen to Jesus. 

I’m all for His teachings

Circling back on this for my fellow AHS parents... 

KXAN named him this morning.  He appears to be a former student, class of 2020.  Former WR on the football field if HUDL is correct.  (also needed to work on his bench if HUDL is correct).

https://www.kxan.com/news/crime/armed-man-detained-near-austin-high-school-police-say/

Now I'm more concerned about it than I was yesterday.  I was hoping it was some random guy who happened to be carrying and forgot he was walking across a HS campus or something.  A former student with 2 guns, out there in the morning before school is a little scarier.  If anybody knows more about this I'd appreciate hearing it.

 

Thanks for posting. I hadn't seen him named as of yet. Just a crazy thing on top of all the Covid crap. If he is indeed a former student that 100% makes me more nervous. Fucking A

Almost every kid playing school sports is vaccinated (7th grade and up)  or should be so I guess i'd be more concerned about the morbidly obese football coaches than the young athletes.

One q-crew parent said he intends to sue the district if they try to mask his kid. He added “believe me, there is a group of us and we are well funded and have the means to do it!”

Knowing a few folks in LTISD, I believe this to be 100% true.

ACC just told faculty to prepare their students to be ready to go 100% virtual on short notice within the next week.

I'm taking an online class there, and the prof mentioned something along those lines for those in the class who were also taking in-person classes.

Just got this text from LISD:

 

Leander ISD: Beginning Monday, Aug. 30, indoor extracurricular events in Leander ISD will be limited to 50% capacity. This will remain in effect while LISD is in the "red stage." Masks are required at indoor LISD events.

 

I'll be shocked if they enforce masks, the last volleyball game I was at had very few mask wearers and masks were required then.

DISD has 889 in 2 weeks of school, 3 weeks of staff returning. 508 students, 292 campus staff, 89 Central office staff. I'd like to think that without masks, those numbers would all be significantly higher. 

DISD ends at 981 positive cases after 2 weeks of school. 576 students, 314 campus staff, 91 Central Office staff.

My kids schools, K-8 and 6-8 have 5 and 2 cases respectively so far.

How many in the district?

Dripping Springs ISD ends week 2 with 40/7,836 student cases and 22/1075 faculty cases. Very few masks being worn by kids.  Less than I figured…

I posted this earlier and I'm not sure what year the information is from but this was on DISD's website:

Dallas ISD employs 22,222 staff members to serve a diverse population of 153,861 students in 230 schools.

So pretty damn great numbers for how many kids DISD has.

In my district, $200 bonuses for vaccinated personnel.

Ours approved $500 and extra paid sick leave.  I know of one teacher (thankfully, not a science teacher and not a teacher at my kids' schools) who reluctantly got J&J to get the bonus, while still spouting nonsense that a "synthetic" in the vaccine makes it less effective with Delta.  But vaxxed.  So whatever.  Guess she had a price, and I'm good with it.

If we post videos of Leanderthals at school board mtgs, immigration from California may cease completely. 

That won't stop it.

Fourth straight day I’ve received a “positive covid case at your campus” notification from my 1st graders school (Leander ISD)

@JesusSweatDuck I got the same notification about the 50% capacity for indoor extracurriculars. Feels like it’s just a matter of time now. My kiddo is going to be really upset if we go back to virtual only for a long period of time. She has been jubilant every day I’ve picked her up since school started. Fuck it all.

That's eating into revenue.  That might get some attention.

Quote

Concluding that Gov. Greg Abbott exceeded his authority by banning mask mandates in Texas, an Austin judge ruled Friday that school districts in Travis County can enforce face coverings as a COVID-19 precaution. 

State District Judge Catherine Mauzy's order also applied to 19 school districts that represent about 1 million students — including Austin, Dallas, El Paso, Fort Worth and Houston  — as well as Austin Community College, which also sued Abbott.

Quote

However, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton quickly appealed, automatically blocking enforcement of Mauzy's temporary injunction — though the Austin-based 3rd Court of Appeals can be asked to reinstate the judge's order while Paxton's challenge proceeds.

In her ruling, Mauzy concluded Abbott's ban on mandatory masks — contained in a July 29 executive order — was unlawful and exceeded his authority in violation of the Texas Constitution.

Austin ISD for the week (may not be final numbers)

167 total new cases

1384 total new exposures

 

Numbers were updated today but it's only counting through yesterday.  268 cumulative cases so far at the end of week 2, which is a little more than LISD had at the end of week 2, but AISD is about twice the size.
