[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like schools open and Robert white would still have them closed, so bowser it is.[/quote] Same.[/quote] But schools are not going to close for COVID in the future, so how does this factor into other education decisions? No snark, honest question from a parent who is still weighing the candidates. [/quote] There are constant battles on what's best for the teachers union vs. what's best for students. For example, R. White and Janeese George are advocating to eliminate standardized testing for students. Without this, we can't measure academic progress. The real reason they want to eliminate testing is so schools won't have the evidence for poor teacher performance so they can't remove ineffective teachers. The union and their supporters have also opened the door to closures for any elevation in levels for any illness. You do know that Robert White and George introduced legislation to keep schools closed this current school year, right?[/quote]
