[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a Democrat who voted for Youngkin. I am glad that he is putting pressure on the school systems to eliminate the mask mandate. [b]It is a shame that he will enact other policies that I strongly oppose, but I felt that those issues had to be sacrificed for the moment. [/b] I am an FCPS high school teacher with high school-aged kids.[/quote] For fighting against mask mandates? It was worth it to you? And you know it's just going to be performance--FCPS will be able to keep them as long as the CDC recommends it (and that's how long they would have kept them anyway) or the legislation changes--which isn't the governor anyway. I hope you think about your voting a little more carefully rather than impulsively in the future if this really is your thought process.[/quote] +1 Over a mask mandate? For real? Wow. [/quote] NP here. My reluctant vote for Youngkin was based on a lot more than masks. It was the fact the my kid missed the last 1/4 of K and 3/4 of 1st grade. It was the democratic party's and national teachers union's insistence that virtual learning was learning and that they were fully justified in shutting down schools. It was the refusal to admit that the school shutdowns were a massive mistake, despite all evidence to the contrary, and it was the complete lack of urgency to do anything to address the learning loss that occurred over the past two years. And on top of that, if you complained about any of this, you were accused of being a Karen, racist, or "throwing tantrums." Dem are going to lose the suburbs in the coming midterms. And schools will be a very big reason.[/quote]
