I’d be a lot more willing to consider going back to f2f instruction if anyone in public office had been working since last March to fix our schools’ air filtration systems, hire more teachers, buy more busses, improve internet access, and stock schools with tests and PPE.
Instead all we got was posturing and platitudes about how “essential” teachers are...until we start asking questions about how safe it will be for us and our students to reopen schools.
Then we get called lazy, ungrateful union thugs who don’t care about children and want to destroy the economy. Usually by the same folks who think the virus is a hoax and won’t wear masks.
Now schools are opening in some parts of the country and nothing has been done to insure the safety of kids or teachers—as the president tweets OPEN THE SCHOOLS and threatens to withhold funding if they don’t. After doing nothing all summer but golf and tweet.
Well, teachers are done being bullied.

And we vote.

Hurry up, November.
