[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So that didn't take long. Elementary students returned yesterday and already APE is fundraising for new signs that say:

Your Student, Every Day
APS is Ready

Did I miss the announcement that COVID is over? Because I swear I just heard the CDC Director and President Biden say now is not the time to relax our mitigation efforts because 50,000 people a day are catching COVID and 2,000 people a day are still dying from it. Presumably this mitigation includes the social distancing that is impossible if all students go back right now. I also heard President Biden say yesterday that adults will be vaccinated by the end of May, so maybe it's worth waiting for at least that? [/b]

WTAF is wrong with them? [/quote]

Did you miss the announcement that school is essential and should be opened?

The data is not really on the CDC's side on this one. ([url=https://www.statnews.com/2021/02/20/new-cdc-school-opening-guidelines-dont-follow-the-science/]source[/url]). If they'd released science-backed school re-opening guidelines, that sure would've helped.[/quote]

School buildings have been closed, not schools. There's a difference. [/quote]

The only reason they did this was to continue paying teachers and all staff, nothing to do with education because its garbage. They took a greedy money grab and didn't even provide childcare support for the parents... Until there are repercussions like test scores and budget adjustments teachers will never come in because there is no accountability. [/quote]

Wait, wait, I'm so confused.  You hysterical parents have been screaming for months "UGH IT'S NOT ABOUT CHILDCAAAARE!!!" and now you're on here whining that schools aren't providing "childcare support" (which they are not required to do during a pandemic and can provide education, which us their job, not childcare, remotely).  Make up your damn minds.[/quote]
