Schools should “prepare for the possibility” of not returning to in-person instruction until January 2021, Gov. Jared Polis told Colorado’s 178 public school district superintendents on a statewide conference call Tuesday, Colorado Springs School District 11 spokeswoman Devra Ashby said.
Superintendents sought clarification and direction after Polis announced Monday while showing a slide, not verbally, that all public and private K-12 schools statewide are to remain closed for the remainder of this academic year to further limit the spread of the coronavirus.
“It wasn’t clear yesterday; there was some guessing, open-endedness and ambiguity,” Academy School District 20 Superintendent Tom Gregory said Tuesday. “It was left open to interpretation on that slide.”

So this thing has seasonality to it and this idiot wants to start in the middle of flu season?
Good grief
Oh, c’mon. This is ridiculous.
This is twice tonight you have posted complete BS articles. Polis is a POS, but that is not what he said. He said he could not guarantee that school would start in the fall. He later clarified that he is confident schools would open in the fall.
YES this is ridiculous they are going to push the envelope as far as they can they keep this crap up look for major landslides in November these people are simply insane!!
Really???
This is what you get when you elect a queer commie as Governor. Don’t care if he’s gay but his policies are strictly Marxist in terms of gaining total control over the whole state and its affairs.
Time for a real revolt in Colorado or else they will become his vassals. Polis is crazy. So was Charles Manson. Don’t let him get that far.
Polis is a POS, but that is not what he said.
Can you post his “clarification”? It’s not in the Colorado Springs newspaper, I posted their article.
And please stop using profanity - even in acronym form.
Revolt coming if that happens.
I’m not a fan of Polis either, but I agree that this is BS. He’s scheduled to start opening up the state beginning as early as next week.
Another Marxist Democrat who just cannot miss those last autocratic orgasms.....
You’re a delicate little flower, aren’t you?
Home and Garden is three websites over.
Family Circle is four :)
If I catch you using a @#$@#$ing acronym again, I’ll @#$@#$ing really @#$@#$ing lose it!!
:)
I would expect a lot of states are going to be in that situation.
In NY we’re not looking at schools opening until mid-May. That’s only a month and some until the end of the school year and that last month is mostly time spend on field trips, movies, plays, and other activities. Very little learning goes on once Memorial Day is past.
Er, make that less learning that usual, which is almost none to start with.
Thanks for posting the correction, truth is better than spin any day,
but I was going to hail the decision to keep the skools closed.
The less time the kiddies spend in Marxist indoctrination centers the better! :)
January is the height of flu season. I don’t think they should ever reopen. And all that paper they use could cause paper cuts. Too dangerous.
So, can we get relief on our property taxes that pay for these liberal indoctrination centers not being open??
“He said he could not guarantee that school would start in the fall. He later clarified that he is confident schools would open in the fall.”
Which means he is lying. he is a mentally ill homosexual that will say whatever he thinks you want to hear. His read between the lines statement is that school will be open in online form but the school buildings will be closed.
