[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bet Jill Biden is very pro teacher because she actually knows what they do unlike you useless fools.[/quote] None of us are anti-teacher. Quite to the contrary. We are very pro-teacher. We want them to teach where they teach best and that is in the classroom. What we are against is a public sector union engaging in absurd posturing that exploits and aggravates unfounded fears during an unprecedented global crisis in order to extract ridiculous concessions for its adult members while denying tens of thousands of children - many of which fell desperately below learning standards before this crisis - the education enjoyed by their peers in almost all of the rest of the country and undermining, for years to come, a historically-underperforming public school district that was, slowly but surely, on its way up. No one who cares about public education or children endorses what you are doing. Useless fools yourself. [/quote] They are teaching. Stop acting like they are not teaching. Who are you to say its best in the classroom when public health officials have said otherwise and schools that are opening are shutting down.[/quote] How to weigh the interests of kids, parents, teachers, and other groups is something that public health officials are as entitled to weigh in on as anyone else, but they don't hold a monopoly on it. We're being risk-averse when it comes to short-term, visible costs, but none of us knows what the effect of a year+ of lost schooling will be on the many kids who are not participating in distance learning. Or what the effect will be of so many women leaving their jobs. [/quote]
