I decided to write my local school district’s superintendent after reading the CDC’s guidelines. I basically told her she’s been receiving crap advice and offered to help her reduce coronavirus transmission in her schools (phrased more nicely obviously). I went to this school district growing up; it’s well-resourced and managed unlike the typical hellscape of a public school. I’ve even met this superintendent before as a high school student, my impression of her then combined with the relative sanity she’s been leading with so far give me hopes she might respond.
Why do this? I had a small insight: write emails to the CDC and you’re a random crackpot among thousands of crackpots. Contact your local school district which you yourself are a product of and you’re a concerned and helpful citizen. (Well, that’s my theory. We’ll see.)

Let us know how this goes.
We have a call scheduled Monday (the district is on winter break so I think they want to be back in the office). I’m shocked I got a reply at all.
