Sure thing. Can't wait.
They seem to have done a fantastic job in containment and keeping my kids home longer can do more damage than Corona.
Don't forget this is only if numbers stay low.

My Brother said he would not. Has 3 kids in that age group.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

If there was a lot of cases in my community I might not send. BH BH BH in the whole entire Haifa and Kryaot there were 200 cases currently that number is much much less. Because of this I see absolutely no reason not to send.

I will be sending my 2 girls and hope they open 4+ soon so my next girl can start.

Thats why I wrote specific to Haifa. RBS/Jerusalem/BB I would probably be a lot more careful.

Nope.
If people want to be guinea pigs for the first few weeks until the results are known, let them.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Dan, Israel is not the USA. In cities of 200,000 people that have 200 total cases over the past 2 months, I would not say guinea pigs. Cant speak for RBS though.

I will not send my kid on Sunday.

While it's true that the numbers are low, we were still in quarantine with most shops closed and most people wearing masks etc.

So I wouldn't risk it now. I've managed without for 4 weeks, I can handle a few more.

On a side note, a lot of teachers are complaining that they don't want to be exposed to 15 kids so soon, many of them threatening to call in sick etc.

What area of Israel are you in? is it a hard hit area?

Tel Aviv.
My main issue is that I would expose my kid to 15 other kids + school's staff etc. Plus commuting etc.
So I don't think it's worth it at this stage, IMHO

I hear you....My kids are in a community private school, where we have had 0 cases from the beginning so its much less of a worry. Obviously if the situation changes I would take them out right away.

We have 3 kids in those grades. Their 3 schools have not yet decided if/when/how they will be opening. We are wavering about whether or not to send.
