Teachers and staff don't have that same choice. We should all be virtual now with the numbers we were at yesterday - and I suspect today. |
Parents don't have the choice either. If your kid gets covid, you might be missing a week or two of work not including if you get sick. |
She's getting her direction from the county and state and this was a Jack Smith promise. She's being thrown under teh buss. |
I suspect the tests they sent home were defective |

You're not forced to send your kid back to infect others. Be a parent. Don't cause more harm. Jesus |

Just because I think all the remote workers posting to keep schools open at all cost may need a reminder about how America works??
People in our country work. Their health insurance is typically tied to their job. When they do not work they lose their jobs. And their health insurance. Now imagine being a teacher with chemo. Or with a spouse or a child on chemo or who's had a transplant. Or who has lupus. Or is pregnant. Imagine being told you have to report to work to work with people who are contagious, in a crowded environment... And if you do not, you'll lose your insurance. Imagine it. Because it's what you're advocating for. |
| They're recruiting "retirees" to drive school buses. Tell me, how is that going to go? |
You want an 80 year old driving a bus... |
I was worried about a 70 year old catching covid. |
Why? It's their choice to prospectively drive a school bus, not yours. People are working in supply chains all over the country/world to provide everything you're planning to use/consume today. |
Because, Virginia, despite the charming stories your third-generation Fed father told you, a lot of people who take jobs that pay about $22 an hour aren't taking them because they have a lot of "choices." |
You're right. They don't have a lot of choices. But they do need to pay for their diabetes meds' skyrocketing copays, which aren't adequately covered by their Medicare premiums, and they happen to live in a country that doesn't actually take care of its elders. So....they get jobs. Its either at checkout at Harris Teeter or driving a bus. The point is they need money. There are no good options. |
| Numbers from yesterday are now up: https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/uploadedFiles/Coronavirus/dashboaird/January%2012%20Daily%20Data.pdf |
Based on what I know about my school, I know the numbers are incorrect (low) for my child's school. |
