[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a high school teacher.  Everything they’re talking about now- like small class sizes- sounds good to me, but I’m having a hard time forgetting that they would’ve had me work with 150 teens without a vaccine.  I can’t get over that:[/quote]

This is a revision of history. Schools were already phasing back students throughout the country long before vaccines were available. [/quote]

That's the point.  Just because TX and FL didn't care about teachers before vaccine availability didn't and doesn't justify the same outcome here.  APE didn't care then, so it's hard to get over that.[/quote]

Exactly. Those barbarian Europeans had kids in class, many unmasked, and we needed schools.  By January, even NYC and the entire New York Metro area had their kids back in class, but our School Board stayed strong and ignored the yellers.  I'm so proud of our Arlington government for how long we closed schools.[/quote]

Stop lying.

Many schools in Europe had distance learning last year as well.

In Jan 2021, 100+ school buildings in NYC were closed due to positive cases. And MSs and HSs buildings weren't even open until Feb/Mar.

NYC ESs reopened in November!  APS elementary student attended in-person the equivalent of 12 out of 180 days last year.  That's really unbelievable to people elsewhere in the United States (except on the West Coast).

Schools throughout suburban New York City were open all year last year. Check Westchester County and New Jersey.  Who are those horrible New York and New Jersey politicians?  Were they secretly Republican?

I'd love to see any other European country where little children attended school the equivalent of 12 out of 180 days.  If there were closures, they were very short term.  Feel free to look it up though.[/quote]

And many schools were still using remote instruction. APS was not an outlier.
