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.
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?
My child in DC had 26 days of in-person learning last year. I know others who got zero days of in-person learning. DC schools differ by individual school, and were some of the last to reopen. They didn't open for 5-day-a-week in-person education until Fall 2021.
Also, there were districts across the country that never closed, and Europeans even opened more than the U.S. throughout the pandemic (if you want to just say red states opened).
So are you person who works at the school choice organization or what?

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."

Because it was anti-science and hurt children. Plus the repercussions on women's work force participation.
It certainly is not anti-science. Yes, closures hurt children, but so does COVID. It has hurt everybody's work force participation. Take note that over 800,000 Americans have died, more than in any war.
There's plenty of evidence that school closures did nothing to limit spread. Hell, have the case numbers dropped in the DMV these past couple of weeks when schools were closed for break? no.
So, if school closures don't reduce spread, why do it? It becomes only a negative and no positive.

Because of CRT. And whyt women as usual
White parents falling for GOP propaganda.
Yup white parents are imagining how miserable children were last year and hallucinating the learning loss they see in their children, and all the articles coming out now about learning loss wide swathes of children suffered.
White parents are under a spell because they don’t see how many democrat run school boards shut down schools.
Of course, the damage was most severe among poor minorities so democrats will have greater gaps to pontificate about for the next decade.
CRT has nothing to do with schools being virtual during a global pandemic.
Are you the lobbyist trying to drive division for your job?

In the case of DC, it's not Republicans. It's merely about who advocates for extended school closures. There are differing degrees of Democrats.
And who “advocates” for that? No one.
But then who will these “concerned parents” vote for?
I would vote for anyone that wants to keep school open. Right now, that means the Mayor instead of R. White.

The DC Council advocated for extended school closures last year when they tried to open.
Are you even paying attention?
