According to WJLA, a few hundred Montgomery County Public School students will be back in the classroom next week. But as the school system hosted a tour for the media of a socially-distanced building, teachers were in their cars driving in circles protesting the plan to reopen.

In the meantime, the schools have taken out all the cafeteria tables and replaced them with desks, put up caution tape around non-essential areas, and placed tape on the floor to ensure students maintain the appropriate social distance. Students will rotate between classroom learning and virtual learning each week, and the school system plans to give self-administered COVID tests to every in-person student and teacher once a week, and require individual health assessments weekly. And the teachers’ union isn’t having it.
Sigh.

Is this what they wanted vaccine priority for?

Just imagine if they put that effort into teaching kids

Good thing they aren’t working and have time to do this. Weasels. They should be fired. Hire those who are willing to work

If it’s because they’re scared of unmasked children etc, they’re in the wrong profession. Their fears are not the child’s responsibility.

Who are the children here?

There lack of concern for the children suffering academically and emotionally is so disturbing.

Maybe they should be making solar panels instead?

I'm beginning to think maybe are kids are better off not in school with these teachers.
— Hollyhill (@asmint17) February 23, 2021
I wouldn’t send my kids to school there if you paid me.

Homeschool your children like we did back when it wasn't cool and you can easily defund this nonsense. Good Americans that think they can fix this are delusional. These are communists and they don't give a shit about your children.
