Just do what Sweden did, oh right they didn’t close schools

Louinjax Unconscionable while we haven’t hit the second wave yet Just like opening too soon children are rushed to schools w/Out Research A few more months’ wait won’t severely hurt our innocent children at the Adults’ mercy CNN MSNBC Politico HuffPost NPR CBS NBC ABC NEA

The science had proven the schools should have never been closed except out of not knowing what to expect. We now know schools from k-8 should open regularly and high schools and colleges use social distancing but go to class.

Help us.

Insane. If you have to do this, the children should not be back in school.

How about listening to doctors?

What a joke!

The world doesn't look to us for leadership anymore.

A bunch of bullshit...80% of mortality rates are for 75yrs and older....

Why do they play with us like this?

It’s over.

That’s odd. Hong Kong school years typically don’t break for summer until mid July - August. Under a pandemic, why would the put children at risk for two weeks....

america won't learn anything from this and move to an online or semi-online learning environment - which will put the final nail into the coffin of the American education system.

Terrible

Transmission is from parent to kids. Or teacher to kids. Very rare between kids.

Good to hear that, at least, some countries have their students returning to school...'some' countries have decided to put their students and societies futures on hold, indefinitely. They most likely, have much more important societal issues to tend to.

Barely recognisable good or bad?

Sounds like some nations dealing out a lot of CONTROL policies to me. Alas. I let the world do as it pleases. Hopefully the goodness in all society prevails. 👁‍🗨

Sad that kids have to experience this

My grandchildren don't like school anymore because they are constantly told to 'get back in their spaces' schools are reeducation camps now. China has won and will be the new world leaders say hello to LeaderXi

Sounds ridiculous

Ha! I think they’ll be rethinking about sending kids to school if the numbers keep going the way they are now!

I feel for kids.They amost missed whole year’s fun at school.

Imagine thinking in person learning is still a must 🤦‍♂️ We KNOW the cariculum is terrible at white washing history, straight up lying to students, and of course the continued racism and bullying. Physical school is unneccessary and underequipt to prepare for the REAL world

Zero chance American schools make all these changes. Some might get close, but most will not have the funding, ability or talent to move this fast. Dysfunctional government is a USA tradition going back to the 1970's.

One of mine went back in uk because he's in the right year and he's loving it, changes taken in his stride, whereas my others are at home and trying to keep them engaged with online learning is getting harder & harder....

There is absolutely no way America pulls off anything adjacent to this. Hand sanitizer in EVERY classroom, temperature checks. Spent 40 years cratering ed....and here we are, completely ill equipped.

man fuck the states

Stupid Adults making children suffocate in masks

This will never work at poor underfunded public schools. This is yet another example why our education system is second to none at being garbage. We're literally going to be right back were we where. Because class rooms are over populated.

I’ll send my kids to school with a mask if it means them being in school and around other kids. It’s better than them staring at a computer screen at home.

Few sports 😪😓

For those who don't care about helping the elderly, at least care for the kids who will be in charge when you become elderly. WearADamnMask

Reading these replies, I seem to be the only person who is a current high schooler in the US, to each their own for the parents but speaking for myself and many of my classmates, we’d be willing to do these things if it meant keeping each other safe but still going to school

Too many people count on Federal or State to do something. But is there anything anyone can do? Schools will be shut as long as there is one infected person. We will have to wear face mask and follow social distancing for a long time until vaccine or cure, or don’t care anymore.

Great trial for the rest of infectious world. Little brave ones. Hope no one gets sick and no one gets infected from school.

Yeah your part discussing New Zealands schools is actually quite outdated rip

Schools already opened !?

We are not the rest of the world. Our citizens avoid any moment of inconvenience as an affront to the civil rights. They stand at City Council mtgs whining about how “masks kill us” & they voted for a dim witted Russian sympathizer. Can’t imagine how school will go.

American school system cant handle the virus. The kids are not responsible as other countries and very low tech.

Children around the world are more mature than the average adult Texan and Floridian.

No thank you

Maybe as the school year passes, depending on how the virus is, schools can slowly go back to their usual formula.

Like if going back to school was that important, they should have just cancelled the school year, what, children will miss quantum physics! Please

What a horror for these babies 👶 I’m going back in time to the APPALACHIANS 🦌🐿🐇🦡🐾🌲

Call it what it is. Child Abuse.

Schools should continue distance learning, if that's the case. You can't expect children to wear a mask for 6 hours straight.

Hell to the no regarding 😷

Any parent who sends their kid to school before a vax doesn't deserve to HAVE kids.

My daughter is begging me not to send her back. I can’t really think of a good reason why she needs to be there.

The whole world will avoid the USA like the plague because we have no leadership on the virus from the top. States are starting a civil war. Main St is dying not the Fed Main St. Restaurants are closing daily.

It's probably easier to poach the communist billionaire technocrats with pitchforks 😡

How can we do school? And how can we tell our kids that school won’t happen? Our federal govt has utterly failed the entire country!

journalismisdead

Not all schools around the world look like this, including in Sweden. UK schools reportedly opening this fall with no masks or social distancing Stop trying to normalize this

HerdImmunity

Our district is looking at half-time school....this should also include 1/2 off my property taxes.

Permanent solitary confinement and isolation sounds great for mental health....

The mind manipulation continues. Parents should file lawsuits

Cafeterias look like exam halls with desks spaced out. Temperatures are checked, shared computers are unplugged, and there are no sports. For some, school has been reduced to a few hours a day or takes place only on alternating days.

Perfect time to implement ballet as physical fitness

It’s a temporary normal. We will get back to our old lives soon.

home school.

Proper housing ventilation is an auxiliary in the new normal

Think of the masks as forced face burkas...

This is a home-schooling advertisement.

New Normal in everything.

OLDER TEACHERS FAT OVER 40 WILL PROTEST! WANT TO KEEP THEIR STAY HOME PAY. BEST, HOME SCHOOL. STOP THE LIBERAL ATHEISM NEA UNION. NO CAN FIRE BAD. LOOK AT RIOTERS, NEA PRODUCED. NO RESPECT US HISTORY FLAG MORALS FAMILY. HOLLYWOOD SMUT PORN ANTI CHRIST MOGULS:NO CHRIST BIBLE !

its called stupidity, shouldnt they make our kids smarter at school?

And it's all bullshit. RemoveLeftists

Oh good. We need more fat kids.

If we turn our backs on this crap it doesn’t have to be the new normal.

temperature checks lmao I had a fever 20% of the time at school growing up

$MARK

Ridiculous

...You mean the buildings ... evolved... Or they were painted over.. Or... 'barely recognizable'?

MISSING STIMULUS CHECK ..I was excluded from receiving a check bc I am on DISABILITY claimed as a dependent and I'm over 17. I know people making over $100k that got a check while I make less than $25 and got nothing. I WANT MY MONEY DUE TO ME!! PLEASE HELP ME 302 993 6575

How sad but at least they are back in school. For many students the only hot meal they have is at school.

Cases are up because of more testing. Deaths are down because we know who is at risk. Actual facts show that the survival rate is 99.97%, and that 80% will never have a symptom. We also have realized that Media are driving a false hysteria that most people are no longer buying.

Lee high School. of course they don't want any of their racist BS changing Lee, like all men, was good and bad. If we remove all traces of men who were bad, there will be no traces of them. We would do better to expand their stories, and view them as men,acknowledging their faults. It would help if more people knew the real history of the Civil War.
