[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could we please all be a bit more patient about opening schools if it will AT THE VERY LEAST keep staff snd faculty from getting sick? New studies regarding community spread in Britain actually show schools are a contributing factor and are the reason folks across the pond are doing so badly.[/quote] Sorry, but some of us who have been working in person throughout the pandemic (and paying to send our elementary school children to attempt to do virtual « «learning » in childcare facilities where lower paid staff take on a greater risk of exposure) are struggling to understand why teachers could not be asked to teach in person last Fall. [/quote] A study out of Canada shows schools opening as a direct driver of recent surges in those communities. I think it’s also important to think as a parent what the value of in person learning is. Is it the being there in person or in person instruction? Schools in the Midwest and south that decided they were opening no matter what this fall are having significant staffing issues. While a sub can babysit a class they aren’t often qualified teachers. I worry next year my kids schools will struggle to retain good teachers. Returning to subpar instruction just doesn’t seem like the best bet. I mean there are no good answers or solutions to any of this.[/quote] Post the Canadian study or stop talking out your ass. I'll gladly post 20 studies that show schools can and should open safely. Your argument is nonsense.[/quote]
