I just want to add, when school staff or kids pass away, especially when school is in, it& #39;s a big deal. (@ it is in & should be in worksites, families, etc.) In schools there& #39;s usually gatherings, that shouldn& #39;t happen now, memorial services, and it& #39;s so very extra sad for all.
Just a few of these tonight. To the North. In the 2 weeks since classes resumed, at least 1,000 students and staff in schools across Edmonton quarantined after potential exposure to COVID-19.

Important: thread within a thread ref other threads. Parents, ppl who work in schools/colleges, this is what you need to know & talk to your BOE about. Tell friends. Make sure they know why - the goal is not to get COVID bc you also give it, you don& #39;t know what it will do in you.
