So not only are you sticking a bunch of unvaccinated kids into a closed air-controlled environment, you're also telling them that they don't have to wear masks.
Kids already have plenty to make fun of each other about - some kids can be incredibly cruel, on a good day. Now you're pitting the masked and the unmasked against each other?
This is a recipe for disaster.

Agreed about the potential for bullying and fights over who is masked up. The children will likely reflect the attitudes of their parents. So, in Florida, the maskless will probably be in greater numbers. The teachers will be faced with 3 nightmare situations........1) Keeping the children from fighting........2) Some will worry that even if they are vaccinated, the Delta variant might make a jump from unvaccinated to vaccinated in the near future - since much is still changing and unknown about CV........3) Many teachers will worry about if the school Administration is on their side.
I wonder if any school system in Florida has spent any MONEY on plexiglass desk shields or on school air depressurizing systems? I have not heard anything about this. However, I would guess that Floridians would NOT want their property taxes to go up just to help the next generation succeed.
