[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’d think the health of our kids would be more important than some percentage points.

People, it’s a pandemic. Who cares about test scores?? I just want my kids to live and not have adverse long term side effects.[/quote]

Not being able to read is much more likely to cause adverse long term side effects for the average child than Covid-19. [/quote]

Newsflash: these problems existed before the pandemic (just look at the data from beforehand). What were all you “reopen the schools for the sake of the poor minority children” folks saying then? What were you doing about it?

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. So my issue is the majority of people crying about “learning loss” don’t actually care, they’re just using Black and Brown people as a tool in their game.[/quote]

What were you doing to help pre-pandemic?  Probably not working in education.  Pre-pandemic, I was teaching in high needs schools and then doing education pro bono work. What do you have to say to me now?  Most of the time I support the public school system as trying to do what is best for kids - but I’ll speak up on behalf of kids when needed.  That’s how I link my prior and current activism. [/quote]
