[quote=Anonymous][quote]They should have foreseen the need for a once-in-a-lifetime medical emergency that was killing millions of people and the government was grappling with understanding and addressing?

Lots of other school systems handle a lot of things a lot of different ways. So what? We learn from it but it doesn't mean that FCPS was inherently wrong. I'm not sure what school your kid goes to but mine did a decent job, not perfect but decent. And it's been THREE years. If the gaps are not closed for your kid, part of that is on your shoulders.[/quote]

The schools are paid for by all of the residents--those who have kids in schools, those whose kids have finished school, those who have kids who will be in schools, and those who never have and never will have kids in schools.  Even those whose kids go to private schools help to pay for public schools.

So, no, it is not on me.   It is on the School Board who made terrible choices.  The Health Department told them they could open and they went with the teachers' unions.

Almost all European schools stayed open.  There were options the SB chose not to pursue--while some of them made other arrangements for their own kids.[/quote]
