“When he says open, he means open in in full, kids being able to attend each and every day at their school,” McEnany told reporters at the press briefing. “The science should not stand in the way of this.”
Ya don't let the science of thousands of kids and staff dying stand in the way of opening schools! Conservatives are really so stupid they don't understand why it will be impossible for school districts to stay open? A teacher tests positive has to quarantine, the whole class has to quarantine, all the staff around that teacher has to quarantine. In a normal school year they can't even fill 70% of teacher call ins with subs. Now try to figure out how they will staff schools when you have a 500% increase in extended length call ins and no sub pool. This is why JCPS has already decided that trying to start with in person classes is not going to happen. It sucks for the younger kids that thrive on the structure but they will be fine. Kids around the world deal with never ending wars and mass starvation and manage to get by. I think spoiled ass american kids can get by with some extra time to stare at their phones and play roblox. Parents will have to do their jobs for once in their lives and not use the schools as babysitters.
