[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the only issue I care about in the upcoming primaries. Did you support banning children from going to school? If the answer is yes, we are going to end your career. What happened in Virginia and New Jersey is coming to the D.C. [/quote]

Why would vote out school board leaders who have had to make the completely thankless decisions regarding closures, masks, vaccines, social distancing, etc.  I guarantee that whatever decisions you would have made would have generated widespread opposition as well.  Get a life!  Over 800,000 Americans have died due to COVID, which is probably understated.[/quote]

Because they failed at their jobs.

Their job was for them to look out for the interests of children, and to provide education to children.  Instead they initiated an un-scientific shutdown of the schools and kept schools closed many months after it was obvious that children were at little risk for Covid and that schools were not significantly contributing to spread.

School board leaders did huge damage to the education and general health and wellbeing of children and there needs to be accountability.

No. Schools in our area went back to the classroom in Feb/Mar just like MANY of other school systems in the country.

Are you the school choice lobbyist who admitted to exploiting the pandemic for your own purposes?

Yes, many school districts failed their students, but many more did not across the US and worldwide.

Your argument boils down to, "others made the same bad decision, so there should be no accountability."
