[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People, wake up!! COVID will be part of our lives for a long time. We will never be able to eliminate the risk completely and its time teachers understand this. We have to adapt, and keep moving the best we can while trying to minimize risk. It's time to think about what's best for our children rather than only thinking of those at risk. The US needs MORE educated people not less, in particular given our current state of affairs.

-1000. yes Covid may be with us for a long time and we need to adapt and so on, but this does not mean opening schools when the number of cases is high. Trump supporting governors want to reopen schools in states like Florida and Georgia, where the number of cases is sky high. they clearly could not care less about the kids, their families and the teachers. schools were supposed to open in our area but then cases started going up after the lockdown ended and they are still too high for schools to reopen. my kids are at Deal and Wilson, schools with 1600-1800 kids where kids travel by bus and metro daily to and from home. teachers are right, schools cannot reopen in this situation. battling a worldwide pandemic is certainly not easy but the Trump administration failed spectacularly and we all are paying the price. too easy to put this on the shoulders of the teachers' union, the culprit is somewhere else.
