I've gone back and forth in my mind about school reopening and certainly don't want teachers to feel that they are risking their lives if they return to school buildings. However, the messaging and demands from teachers' union representatives has not been in good faith. It is easy to shoot down every proposal, but much more difficult to come to the table with specific demands for a safe return to school. That's what we need. Those in charge keep kicking the can down the road to the point where parents have started thinking that in person school might not be a possibility for next year or even the year after that.

The teachers union hasn't been kicking the can down the road.   We have asked for a return to in person school to be tied to specific metrics of disease spread in the community.

In particular, we are asking that schools remain closed unless the amount of new cases of COVID, per day, per 100,000 is under 10.

That is a completely reasonable thing to ask.  Instead of telling us "it's been long enough, time to reopen" why not look at the case rate in the community and ask "Why is the care rate so high and what can we do to lower it?"[/quote]
