How is there not a thread about that lunatic dad who screamed at the Loudon school board?

Who’s the person on your kid’s google meet all day if the teachers refuse to work?

I have been forced to teach my ES kids most of the math strategies because my kids are simply not engaged in DL, at all. I have to spend at least an hour or two per day with each of my children. My kids aren’t mindless zombies who learn by staring at a screen for 6 hours a day, they are 8 and 9 years old, they are healthy, active kids who crave face to face socialization and interaction. My DC, who once loved school, now states that he hates school and has no friends. It’s very depressing. While his acquaintance down the street attends in person Catholic School every day.

Therefore I'd assume, emerging arguments about teachers/students taking the virus home to their household are entirely irrelevant and disingenuous. On this, we agree.

Um no. Trash collectors don’t face anywhere close to the risk of acquiring Covid on the job as 15 people spending 6 hours in a poorly ventilated room.
Do you know nothing about viral load?

Please explain why most Catholic/private schools have been back since September at full capacity, explain daycare centers, explain indoor gyms/gymnastics/karate/etc. classes. Why are public schools an exception?


Because public schools are accountable for the health and safety of their students, teachers, and staff.

If it were safe (due to testing, procedures, PPE, vaccines, community spread, etc.) then they would have opened a long time ago (thanks, Trump turds, for ruining this for the rest of us).

With the vaccine rollout they will hopefully open soon.


This little rant doesn't cut it.
Do you think that private schools are not accountable for the health and safety of their students, teachers and staff?
Hell...... if something happens at a private school, they will lose their paying customers. I would say they are MORE accountable.
So, your reasoning is totally flawed.

Teachers' associations/unions.


This country has done such an excellent job of telling people that if workers organize that's a bad thing.

Except cops, I guess.


Look at Chicago. Schools opened. The teachers' union said they weren't going back.
Presto!!! Schools closed..


Then I invite you to look into it. I mean really look into it. Find out exactly what Chicago Public Schools were offering to mitigate the ongoing pandemic, see exactly what the teachers union was hoping Chicago Public Schools was going to do to mitigate the ongoing pandemic, and then compare and contrast and see where their differences lie.

You are doing yourself an enormous disservice by just seeing one thing equating it as bad without any research critical thinking or further investigation. Teachers teach students to use evidence to form conclusions all the time. You should try doing the same.

And because it is private they can require things public schools can’t and kick you out if you won’t comply.

and just to add on you can be totally right here and the Chicago teachers union can be totally wrong. But you haven't done any of the legwork and critical thinking to make a good conclusion. You just see union and equated to "bad"

No - private schools help prove my point exactly. They have the means to make a safe environment so that the students can return. They quickly brought in air cleaners (that are only now getting procured in public), they procured PPE and set up outdoor classrooms, they require weekly testing (can you imagine any public doing that?), they can even restrict activities outside of school.

If our public school systems could do what the private schools have done, then they would have opened a long time ago.

Because private schools require tuition to stay open. In order to collect tuition, they have to provide an appropriate and valuable service to their clients. They can't just phone it in and still get paid, like public schools.

But my point is, the Catholic and private schools aren’t being wiped out by covid. Everyone is surviving and doing just fine, teachers/students/administrators. Daycares, for crying out loud, are petri dishes, oh, but they are open and thriving! Kids are attending in person gymnastics/karate/dance/music. Public schools need to think outside the box a little, how about some outdoor classes, the risk of transmission is significantly lower outdoors. We are failing our children.

PLEASE do not mess up this thread with facts and evidence. The powers that be don't want kids in school. What part of that do you not understand?

Don't be absurd. Very few private schools are doing ANY of these things, let alone all of them. Unless by "PPE" you mean, cloth or paper masks. Special air cleaners, outdoor classrooms, weekly testing, restricting activities...none of those things are happening at almost any private.

Yup, this and the fact that they had parents sign waivers stating that they would not hold the school liable for any adverse outcomes associated with Covid.

Explain daycare centers, the filthiest places on Earth. Please explain how daycares are remaining open and daycare workers continue to show up everyday willing and able. Now, the daycare workers are the true heroes.
