I think that if you want to homeschool your kids, thats great. I have always offered my free tutoring assistance to any family, whether enrolled in school or home. All that matters to me is that every adult does their best to give each child a quality education and enough socializing to build friendships but also add some cool outdoor activities. I have been in the schools for over 15 years and I always feel horrible when a kid comes to school sick, pale, coughing etc. We don't want them to go home because they miss so much, but we can't have them sick at school either. I'm not sure what the solution is as far as masks etc in schools. I feel like a nag when I ask kids to please wear their masks, but, I think there have been a lot less colds spread. I haven't had one in almost 3 years. I usually go home with something crispy on me from a kids sneeze so as far as germs, i think we have less flying around the classroom. Unless you faithfully teach from the heart, I don't think you can understand what a hard job it is. It's amazing to work with those little people and I'm glad they can count on me.
If i said there is no more kids here you think me crazy!Try to see the worst of us as kids.Remember Jesus said to call know one teacher for a reminder that their is only one that gives understanding.

I think homeschooling would have kept me from trouble. It's an ideal way to teach

Note to self: you could be a great teacher already
Kids can learn from the good and the bad teachers even more so if they have a interest in the subject.If you want to be the greatest of teachers ask god.

With 700k dead idk if mask free is ok.
I find that on health and environment, younger people are progressive.
The adults are the issue cause and hindrance
When studies show that masks by majority do relatively nothing to stop the virus. The typical cloth masks or surgical masks only gained a 8% rating of stopping the virus in a closed lab setting. The N95 had a 47% to 60% chance and that is in a lab setting under perfect conditions.

Another study shows harmful carbon dioxide levels for children in mask use. Younger being the worst.

Fox news.... not something that I would rely on. In Europe it would be considered less than a opinion channel

we usually send them home if we notice they are sick
There is only ONE bed in the sickbay at my school.

Parents, take responisbility for your children, Please. If you cant do it yourself ask a relative. Do NOT send them to school sick. Dont put them at risk sending them to school when theres virus in the community either.

Many schools have classes with up to 30 children and over 100 enrolled. Many do not have enough toilet and handwashing facilities for each child...even the teachers may have to share.

think of what would happen if even ONE child or teacher caught the virus and spread it to others.

dont fret if they are missing school everyone is in the same boat.
Teachers dont always enjoy having to do zoom meetings but you just do what you have to.

Most schools have sent out learning packs for their children for activities to do at home. There is a lot of learning you can do at home.

dont worry if you are not a teacher and thats not your job. The important thing is that your children are safe...
