[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't blame you. I just hope that in the future we as a society can recognize that stopping in person learning has real consequences. Education is essential (and for large numbers of students, does not work virtually).[/quote] We were in a tough place, with no easy answers. Yes, school sucked for a lot of kids, mine included. How many more people might have died with 100% in-person school? I'm not qualified to answer that, but I can say I think we lost enough lives as it was.[/quote] We know that schools could have reopened safely with precautions in place. We saw this happen in other parts of the country. And we saw it happen right here with private schools. MCPS stayed closed longer than most other school systems in the US. That had too many negative effects. [/quote] Most of that information is in hindsight. The schools that opened up were doing an experiment with insufficient and evolving data. They weren’t smart they were lucky. I’m a public school parent and the sibling of a public school teacher and I am glad that they put the health and safety of my sibling and that of the children first. [/quote] Sure. And we were really UNlucky that our kids were kept out of school buildings for over a year. For no good reason. [/quote] Ah the Monday morning quarterback. We were unlucky there was a global pandemic. Most people Did the best they could with the info they had[b]. The idea that any of this was easier for the teachers and schools is laughable.[/b] Too bad you can’t or won’t look past the end of your own nose. We are very lucky this virus isn’t killing very many kids…..yet. [/quote] +1[/quote]
