[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids won't be back in classroom until January, at the earliest. Do you want to dump your kids in school or do you want the kids, teachers, and staff to be safe? [/quote]

They are basically one and the same, as long as those who are vulnerable (obese, over 65) isolate themselves.[/quote]

Who do you think is going to be left to run and teach in this school? Serious, non-snarky question. Once you remove everyone with high risk for COVID, who is left?[/quote]

PP, in my anecdotal experience at least, there are plenty of teachers in MCPS who are not obese and/or over 65.[/quote]

I can think of 20 teachers on our staff of over 100 who would be left. Even a lot of the young ones are obese or have health issues. I go on outdoor ed and day field trips so I know who is diabetic, asthmatic, or has a heart condition. There are two Type I diabetics under 32. Then there’s people like me who live with highly vulnerable family members. [/quote]

80% of MCPS teaching staff at your school is old or in ill health? Wow. What's up with that?[/quote]
I am a teacher in my twenties who exercises seven days a week and has no underlying conditions. My husband has a history of major lung surgery and we live with a family member who donated a vital organ to his dying brother. I realize that my family isn't important to you-I know this because your family isn't important to me. See how that works? The health and well-being of my family will always be paramount to providing childcare so other people can work.[/quote]
