Any parent who would just sign there kids up for a vaccine in the next couple years is obviously not doing their own research on the matter.

1 in 500 risk of what? It's much less than that of dying for a kid, but of spreading it to other people - including kids or teachers who are immunocompromised is a different story.
What happens if half the parents refuse to vaccinate? You run the risk of stuff like this everywhere.

According to the report released Friday, the outbreak at the camp identified only as “Camp A” suggests children “might play an important role in transmission.”
“These findings demonstrate that SARS-CoV-2 spread efficiently in a youth-centric overnight setting, resulting in high attack rates among people in all age groups, despite efforts by camp officials to implement most recommended strategies to prevent transmission,” the report said.
“Asymptomatic infection was common and potentially contributed to undetected transmission, as has been previously reported. This investigation adds to the body of evidence demonstrating that children of all ages are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection.”
Of those who became infected, 231 were aged 17 or younger; the remaining 29 were adults.
