READ ENTIRE LETTER! MORE INFO AT BOTTOM! WE DON'T WANT TO GO BACK TO VIRTUAL LEARNING SO SIGN THIS PETITION!

Dear OUSD, Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammel, and School Board Members,

This petition is to inform you that OUSD students are not comfortable going to school with the rising cases of COVID-19. There's a lot of concerns regarding safety measures and how to protect us from COVID-19, especially the highly contagious Omicron variant. In order to ensure a safe learning environment, we demand you give us KN95/N95 masks and weekly PCR testing. If these demands are not met we will be striking by not attending school. We will be striking until we get what we need to be safe.

This is a draft letter to the superintendent from OUSD. MONTERA STUDENTS! Sign this petition if you agree that we need better COVID protocols! With the rising covid cases we need better testing, some students have only been tested once this entire time.

How it is NOT SAFE

Increased COVID cases at school
No access to the recommended mask (N95)
No designated space for people to eat safely 
No access to weekly testing (PCR or rapid testing) 
Desks are not spaced far enough apart
No sub coverage when teachers are out sick

UNLESS YOU Make It Safe:

We demand KN95/N95 Masks in schools for every student
2x a week PCR and Rapid tests for everyone on campus

OUSD students have decided the district has one week, starting Monday, January 10th, to meet our demands. If the demands are not met by Monday, January 17th, students will strike starting Tuesday, January 18th by not going to school. Friday January 21st we will strike outside the OUSD Building and it will last until the demands are met.

If you sign this petition and by next Tuesday OUSD has not met our demands please do not show up to school unless you absolutely need to. PLEASE FORWARD THIS PETITION TO EVERY MONTERA STUDENT YOU CAN THINK OF SO WE CAN MAKE THIS CHANGE!
