AUGUSTA In order to have all students in the Augusta Public School System return for in-person classes five days a week this fall, school officials will send out forms of consent to families to allow their children to participate in pool COVID-19 testing.
According to the Maine Department of Education, if a combined 30% of students, faculty and staff in a school building give consent to be tested, social distancing and physical distancing requirements do not have to be followed. That means desks and students can be closer than the allotted 3 feet for children and 6 feet for adults; however, masks still have to be worn and students still have to be 6 feet apart while eating lunch.

In most circumstances, I have been treated with kindness, which is appreciated. I believe that the pandemic is a serious issue that needs to be addressed. I had hopes for more in-person learning this school year. Here are my thoughts:
