[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There sure are a lot of people on here who think they know better than county leaders, doctors, public health experts, school administrators, and teachers. I don’t know what the right answer is, but neither do you.[/quote]

I know that kids need to go to school.[/quote]
[b]And I know that a child's right to an education does not supersede the rights of teachers, custodians, cafeteria workers, bus drivers, and instructional aides to a safe working environment. [/b]We want school back in session too. But meaningful protocols to mitigate the spread of the virus need to be in place. Unfortunately, if a school is overcrowded they will have to reduce density by establishing different cohorts of students who physically attend school on different days. There is no other way around it-we can't build and staff new schools to accommodate all the students. [/quote]

Why not?[/quote]

I’m hoping that you bolder the wrong area of that post and really don’t mean that you think children have more right to be in a building than adults have a right to live.

Yeah, sorry. Although your kids are the center of YOUR universe they are no more important than anyone else. That is a fact, not an opinion. I’m not willing to die or potentially kill my own family for your child. I’m a teacher, not a soldier. [/quote]

This isn't only about PP's child. It's about ALL kids in this country. And as a group, their education is more important than protecting the minority of vulnerable people among the school staff.[/quote]

She has a point. When has DCUM ever cared about minorities in the school system. Whether it’s a racial minority, a religious one, or learners with unique needs, the message from DCUM is I need to get mine and screw you.[/quote]

You surely understand the different meanings of the word "minority", so don't twist my argument to fit your prejudice.[/quote]

The people you don’t care about a minority based on their health conditions and don’t care about them.[/quote]

I believe we need to support them with health care, and with other services if they cannot work in schools anymore. I do not believe they should have the power to keep millions of kids from going to school so that they can keep working there.[/quote]
