          The way our civilization has advanced, two-thumb typing is way more important then cursive writing anyway. Do they still offer typing class? Have the adapted it to focus on two-thumb typing?

            So what, specifically, is the plan when a teacher gets Covid? How about students? Food handlers?

            It would be interesting to know how many schools simply haven’t figured it out yet.

              This might be the most accurate thing I have seen on the subject.

                  Heck, they probably do that at Phibes’ company meeting.

                            What is the goal?

                            Zero get infected?

                            OK, then never open anything.

                            A few get infected?

                            Open some things.

                              I can't remember where I saw it (North Clackamas School District?) but the "plan" was something like if 3 kids test positive the entire school shuts down again for 14 days.

                              Sounds like a bumpy ride.

                                      Curious as to why they start school so early. Private school maybe?

                                        The crops are in the field.

                                        They'll need time off at harvest.

                                          Some places just start early. When we were in NC they started mid-August.

                                          In AZ they start crazy early.
