So if the metrics are good to have literally everything else--including privates!--open, then schools should be open, too.

It’s crazy that *everything* else is open - except the SCHOOLS! Insane.
I’m a lazy teacher. I want virtual school for as long as possible. And if you can post vitriol daily even better.

Everyone was patient, tolerant all spring, summer, fall....literally every friend I have with kids out of school had had their breaking point this week or last. Not sure if its post-holiday doldrums, cold weather, lack of vitamin D but literally everyone has HAD IT. Patience is gone. No goodwill or "grace" left.
SB1303 to force in-person school comes up for committee vote again tomorrow. Call the state senators on the health & education committee and tell them to vote yes on referring it to the senate.
Why doesn't this bill clearly say 5 day a week school? Even if they pass the law, FCPS will do the minimum of 2 day hybrid and then say that they meet it.

What benefit?
What benefit is there to having commerce and civic activities open? Is that your question? Really?
