[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Public schools are absolutely tasked with educating children (mind and body). School teachers are tasked with ensuring this mission is accomplished. Virtual learning was an unmitigated failure for all students: test scores tanked, mental health plummeted, athletes didn’t progress and social connections were lost. Our children must be educated and not made mentally ill from the process. We accomplish this by staying in real classrooms with teachers and peers…. It’s pretty simple.[/quote] And how do you stay in real classrooms with teachers and peers in the middle of a pandemic? With safety measures in place so that Covid doesn't spread out of control and close schools. But sadly too many are lobbying to get rid of the very safety measures that are keeping schools open. [/quote] We have real tune examples all over the country and world of schools being open fine with no masks, etc. We have to learn to live with COVID as it’s not going anywhere. The government needs to treat it like it does other illnesses like the flu, which the IFR is similar to now with vaccines for adults (it’s already less than the flu for unvaccinated kids and adults under 40). If someone in their own personal approach wants to be more cautious/paranoid, no one is stopping them from wearing N95s, etc., just like they can for the flu.[/quote]
