[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since MD is on all the quarantine list for states than have things under control — you aren’t close yet [/quote]

Yet the NYT says most MD schools can reopen.  https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/08/14/opinion/politics/covid-school-reopening-guidelines.html

If you take a closer look it says the schools can reopen "with conditions."

The problem is our school system can't meet those conditions.

They suggest having no cafeteria time, barring the use of lockers, and that classrooms can be relatively safe "with proper funding."

Good luck.[/quote]

Is that some unreasonable, unattainable goal? Honestly, we are making this out to be like it’s impossible and it’s not. How about we come up wiry a solutions instead of just saying it’s impossible because it’s not. Bad ventilation systems? Get portable hepa filters for each class. Create a pod based model and mandate masks. It’s not that hard. People have already figured out the basics to this already. I get funding is an issue, but the state is just going to have to step up and the federal government will send money eventually. It’s not like distance learning platforms were free or anything.

Funding is a huge issue. The state is running a major deficit, and Trump isn’t about to help us. Don’t expect any extra money.[/quote]
