What does Google have to do with anything?

If the two largest school districts in Wyoming do it then it's one thing (impacting a couple tens of thousands of students). If the two largest in Maryland do it that is something totally different (impacting over three hundred thousand students).

You're just like those posters from New York who constantly talk about teachers making $100,000/year.

These are three large school districts in Sunbelt states. We're going to see more and more school districts go to online learning as the number of Covid cases escalate.

I guess that narrows it down. We know that isn't CA since they announced a couple of weeks ago that their K-12 schools were going virtual. Hmm, let me guess. It's not Clark County, Nevada because they aren't going virtual yet and that is the biggest district in that state. So it's either Arizona or NM. What do you think, North Beach ?

It is time for the teachers to get back to work.
1. We never STEPPED AWAY from work...even during the break, most of us are working furiously to train, convert, adapt, and plan for the upcoming year. MORE SO than usual.

2. IF I go out anywhere, I follow regulations, and take every effort to mitigate the exposure that I have and that I present to workers. Curbside, etc., so that all contact is minimized. Those workers you mentioned will not be in a 400 sq ft room with 28 other people for 7 hours.

3. NO ONE is saying they don't WANT to work...we are asking that it be done SAFELY.

I was always taught, and taught so myself, that the Sunbelt included the Deep South-Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee (to an extent)-, southern Virginia, Texas the Carolinas, even Arkansas.

My impression (?) was formed from working in an industry that moved many operations to what they termed in the late 1970s as the Sunbelt. That included all the states I mentioned.
