ok, well how old are the kids. And why are the tables set up like that?
They’re not locked in but it’s still a fire code violation to block exits. Pathways must be clear.
John Bender:
That’s very clever, sir. But what if there’s a fire? I think violating fire codes and endangering the lives of children would be unwise at this juncture in your career, sir.
Uhm...they are not barricaded inside. They can still open those doors from their side, they swing away from the tables.

It’s a fire code violation to put anything blocking a door.
If they think they ate barricaded and combined with intent of faculty then, in fact, they are barricaded.
Looking at photo it appears the tables are inside the gym ( wooden floor of gym visable) Did kids barricade themselves in?
It brings back the fundamental question: WHY the hysteria? WHY the emotional and near-physical psychotic "need" to mandate vaccines and mandate masks by the teacher unions and government employees?
Why are those tables in front of the doors?
I’m not buying the school’s lame excuse that the tables were just put there temporarily as broken tables where being replaced with functional ones.
What kind of moron blocks the doorway of a room he supposed to be carrying things in and out of. Doesn’t pass the smell test.
They were put there as symbolic or psychological punishment even if the doors open the other direction. It’s still a fire code violation and I bet the Fire Marshal had some words with the superintendent along the lines of “If I get called down here again because of your stupidity, I will issue a fine that will make your eyes bleed.”
It’s impressive how stupid and petty school administrators are these days. I really don’t think reform is possible. It’s a sinking ship.
