Have some sense and try to see why so many families are suffering and upset. I have two kids attending in person, but it does not hurt to understand others' points of view. School is not for you, school is not for me. School is for everyone.

Schools are open. Students may attend if they wish and simply need to wear a mask

Teachers per recent stats have been present save for this past week and an occasional miss.

But yes, let us all shut down because a small but vocal minority of parents want everyone to wait while they get comfortable with numbers.

Nope, not again, not another long shutdown that hurts the mental well-being of students.


Well that’s wrong. Over 400 classrooms are closed. Those kids can’t go to school.

And those damn hospitals! Why don’t they just shut up and deal with the surge in covid cases so you can get your kid out of the house!

Talk about mental ill, pp. Good example!


No worries, the hospitals can put up tents when all the beds are full.

Why don’t you become a teacher or bus driver?


Have you seen their POS application process?


You are smarter than everyone else. Why is that an obstacle? People dumber than you applied and got jobs. If they can do it, why can't you?

Schools are for educating students, not a jobs program. The 94% of you can pound sand.


You're so ignorant that I just feel sorry for you at this point. I wonder what its like to be so stupid. Kids aren't being educated right now, but thanks for playing. Just because a school building is open doesn't mean there is learning going on. That requires staff which is non-existent right now. Wake up. The "reopen at all cost" crowd is the worst because they only care about themselves. Such a selfish group of people and worse, they don't even try to educate themselves.


Here is a number for you: 96% of all schools in the US remain open. Stop acting like a martyr. I guarantee you that there is more learning going on now, even amongst the chaos versus going remote.

Lol, exactly how dumb are you? Of course they are going back..they closed at the appropriate time and didn't have kids sitting in schools spreading it. That was the entire point of the two weeks. Critical thinking isn't your strong suit I see.


And what, it magically won’t spread anymore when they go back? Everyone was just hunkered down the entire time?

Leading isn't easy, especially in times of crisis. But she held strong in the face of parents who ignored science, numbers and the well being of our children.

School remained open, continues to be open, and our children are learning in person. Well done Dr. McKnight. Count me in the camp of hoping she gets the job full time.

And for when this debate inevitably happens again (whether it be the spring, fall or winter)...this is now the 2nd time the county has been right to keep schools open (see Fall 2021 "Delta" wave). Schools stay open, debate is over.

Also, a big kudos to the principals in MoCo who lead each of their respective schools through the wave as well. Deserve as much credit as Dr. McKnight.


Okay Mr. DR. McKnight
You couldn't be more transparent

Have you seen the county data someone posted in this thread?

Forcing everyone to go to school with 25% transmission rate is not the same as keeping schools open with 2% transmission rate. All surges/waves are not the same.

What a dumb staff from the central office. Celebrating infecting so many kids and families!!

It is not a contest, but if you feel like you won a contest then go ahead and throw a big party.
