Priorities.
Besides, if the first team is all out sick on game day the 2nd and 3rd stringers get to play.
There is more to game strategy than moving the ball down court

Great call having school today. I had 12 missing from 32, so it was word searches and Multiplication Blooket!

My wife works for a school district and travels to all campuses plus service home bound and babies. She was wearing MOP4 before COVID. Someone is always coughing, sneezing or throwing up on her. Since they cannot send a kid home unless there is a fever, schools are always a hot zone. Stay well and wear your protection....

There is teacher next door to me and he has had COVID for going on nine days. He does have a mask on.

Why are they at work? Here that is an automatic week off. The teachers her get Covid at lease once a year and head to Cancun.

That's a good question. They gave him some kind of story. I don't think he wanted to be here all of those days.

It's a constant battle with the school district on when to keep a kid home. We fought with our district for several years with our kids. Forced trips to the Dr when the kid just needed some OTC stuff and bed rest for a day or two to get over things. I did get some satisfaction one day, when he was sick at school and the nurse, a secretary and two principals were trying to convince him that he wasn't really sick and to go back to class. When he managed to puke all over them, they called me to come get him. Wasn't long after that and some bureaucratic nastiness, that we pulled both kids from the district and home schooled them.
Yeah, except too many parents today don't give their kids the needed bedrest. They want the schools to take the kids off their hands. Probably because they need the Playstation to cool off.

When the Chicago teachers were on strike several years back, some parents argued that they HAD to get the kids back to school because their neighborhoods were much too dangerous for them to stay home. That's not a school problem.
Yeah, that is certainly a problem.
An even bigger problem is 1 in 8 children in the US would go hungry without school lunches. Its even higher in some places.
Also not a school problem…
When I lived in Louisiana it was so bad, the school opened up in the summer to provide lunches to the impoverished children.

My congratulations to that/those schools for doing what was right instead of what was lowest cost.

In our area we have one group that fixes lunches for kids in the summer when school is not in session. Each year Arby's restaurants collects donations to feed children. We have EBT cards issued to people to provide food. Various soup kitchens and food pantries provide meals or the means to make them. And despite this, kids are hungry. My brother and his wife accepted the responsibility to care for three children produced by a woman who had 6 without benefit of wedlock and the schools kept sending home canned food with the kids even though they did not need it. This is not the fault of our economy or food industry.
It is because so many parents refuse to parent. About 70% of all black children in the USA are born to single mothers; this is a permanent condition that will never be changed because the people of that socioeconomic prefer it that way. 50% of all marriages end in divorce and and 70% of the time the women request the divorce.

I could comment, but it would involve politics and religion. Therefore,

Same.
It has nothing to do with refusal to parent. Thats the false narrative being force fed to everyone.
Lets put it this way, the town in Louisiana where I lived had a pop of 30,000 people and 43% of the population lived below the poverty line regardless of family make up.
I'll leave it at that, because It will only turn political…

Exactly. Thank you. I take my leave as well…
