Stop and read this letter from Enrique Abud Evereteze, a high school senior at Boston Latin where they are considering reinstating a mask mandate after the holiday break. @MayorWu @HealthyBoston @OjikutuBisola @svilleskipper his words matter, don’t ignore the kids.
For the first post on my Substack, I am featuring a letter from a high school senior, Enrique Abud Evereteze, in opposition to returning to school mask mandates. In his own words "it is dehumanizing" and “students have been used as ineffective shields” tracybethhegmdphd.substack.com/p/a-letter-fro…
A must read letter by a high school senior at Boston Latin Academy in opposition to the potential return of school mask mandates. Are you listening to the kids impacted by your policies @healthyboston, @OjikutuBisola, @BostonSchools, @svilleskipper, @wutrain ??

Why we fought for open schools in MA. This wasn’t hard to predict, and it surely wasn’t necessary for multiple years on end. Sadly, children will pay the price for these poor policy decisions for decades to come. wsj.com/articles/educa…
To date, students are still dealing with a patchwork of haphazard local decisions, often under the guise of “mitigation”. We know the 2022-2023 school year will bring continued and new challenges. We will keep marching forward, for our children’s education and development. (/end)
As the 2021-2022 school year winds down, we want to thank everyone who supported us, advocated for our children and kept fighting with us. To date, there are districts still in masks, and we still lack a uniform voice at the state level that’s focused on the KIDS…+ (1/)
@RyanBagwell @AHandsomeDuck @MayorWu @WBUR @BostonSchools Yes.
@BrandonJTreacy @massteacher …restrictions that have little impact on the course of Covid but lots of impact on children’s education and development.
So, @massteacher expects that we will track “school-by-school and town by town” Covid cases…..forever?
“If we're going to take away rapid testing, it needs to be replaced with some kind of tool that's still going to help us understand the rates of infection — school by school and town by town.”– MTA President Merrie Najimy wgbh.org/news/education…
“So much self-harm and suicide ideation.’ Now reflect on reality that millions of kids didn’t have in-person access to counselors for a year, and also that counselors didn’t see the struggles of millions of kids who stopped logging in to remote school. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
As students suffer educationally, emotionally, & developmentally from the responses over the past two years (closed schools, ineffective hybrid models, restrictions, cancelled activities etc), sadly the @massteacher’s union continues their blinded singular focus on Covid.
@AmerAcadPeds Did you #PutKids1st when you pulled back your support of school reopenings and supported @AFTunion @NEAToday efforts to reopen remotely in fall, 2020? When you stayed silent as US school closures dragged on?
Teaser (and my favorite line): “Children are excluded from school because they have runny noses, when it is precisely children’s exposure to other kids with runny noses that creates a robust immune system when they reach adulthood.”
I've intentionally stayed quiet on Covid policies of late. It's not fun arguing against the zeigeist. But a quick reminder of how problematic our local media has been. A quick thread (ugh)
So at the end of another school year, w/ vaccines, natural infection & far more knowledge re: this virus, kids STILL bear the brunt. We've always pushed back on restrictions that have trade-offs for children and that aren't evidence-based. When will our leaders join us? /end
Nonetheless, local BOHs, superintendents @massupt & school committees @MASCSchoolComm are stuck in "we have to do something" mode. So with one month left of school, children are asked to mask again, just as experts say the cases are peaking (8/x). wcvb.com/article/covid-…
Each day, we hear of more schools & daycares reverting to masking of children while learning. It's been ~3 months since the state mandate ended, yet here we are: Kids can be masked at a whim, despite all we know about cloth masking & the impacts of the past 2 years. 🧵 (1/x)
