Keep Greenville County Kids In School


Keep Greenville County Kids In School
The Issue
Sending healthy kids home is not acceptable. The structure of the Greenville County School Boards rules is punitive for healthy children and can be implemented at will. It is effectively removing kids from class by labeling children "close contact." They are determining a difference between masked or unmasked, vaccinated or unvaccinated, and dishing out different consequences regardless of your childs having experienced any symptoms. It is insidious, discriminatory, cumulative, and endless.
The PARENTS of Greenville County School District SHALL DECIDE if and when they want to remove THEIR CHILD for precautionary measures...
NOT THE SCHOOL BOARD!!!
Greenville County School Board is allowing schools to ask minors about their vaccination status. They are discriminating against parents that choose not to share their child private medical records while allowing others that show vaccination cards to stay in school . Parents don't dispute a child that has tested positive for Covid-19 to seek medical treatment immediately and quarantine the recommended number if days or until they can receive a negative Covid test. We agree all parents should be notified if their child was around student who tested positive, but it is up to parents to decide what to do from there. " Contact Tracing " must stop!!!
The Greenville County School Board is determining whats best for your childs health. It's time we tell them who has that authority.
POWER LIES WITH THE PARENT.
The School District of Greenville County does not reflect the desires of the majority of parents in this county.
