This private school has been open all school year, and has had zero in-school transmissions of COVID-19. And its tuition is far less than what the public schools spend. The real reason for keeping the public schools closed has nothing to do with COVID-19.

“Whatever the reason is for keeping the public schools closed, it has nothing to do with COVID-19.”

The teachers’ unions don’t want to work. The ‘remote learning’ is BS, and doesn’t work, and they know it.

Must be location to location. My kids have all been back in school since the new semester started in January. Elementary, Jr High, Sr High. No issues, no complaints from anyone. (North Dakota)

This is the exact situation at the private high school where my brother teaches. Tuition is half of what is spent in public schools and 93% of graduates go on to graduate from COLLEGE. Teachers and school administrators have to answer to the parents who pay the bills unlike in public schools where no one his EVER held accountable.

I teach in Texas, and we have been at school since the start of the school year. We’ve had exactly 1 case of the chinese virus, and 1 case of the flu virus this year.

All overkill. The kids are the safest people from the ChiCom Virus on the planet.

It's the same reason for keeping lock downs and mask mandates in place which have nothing to do with COVID-19.

So how much are homeowners saving in local taxes because of schools being closed due to Covid? They must be getting a rebate at least since schools are not being used; for example, janitorial services and cafeteria workers aren’t needed, which common sense tells us should be a significant saving for school districts.

Typical government employee mentality: No work; 100% pay.

Government employee unions are organized criminal enterprises. They feed at the public trough using coersion and bribes/votes as currency. Maybe they should all be dissolved for RICO violations.

EVERYTHING about COVID is a LIE. When you start from there, everything that is and has been going on, makes sense.

My son’s Christian school has been in-person only since they started on time in August. A few cases here and there, but they don’t appear to have spread in school. Meanwhile, county schools started two weeks late and are about half live and half virtual, meaning no one is getting anything done.

A man I know started a new, conservative Catholic high school in our area. Our Bishop told him, “we’re closing schools, do we really need another?” but agreed to rent him a disused parish school building for $1 year.

Started 6 years ago with 12 students. Teachers were local university professors who volunteered their time to get it started. Daily mass, Latin, classical philosophy, math, science, English classics. No social justice or liberation theology. Tuition is <$6000. Now up to 150 students. First graduating class already attending top universities.

Flee the government indoctrination camps before the cultural revolution comes to you.

Worth repeating all day long:

Same in Phoenix Catholic schools.

In person since August, a few flu cases here and there.

And no communist indoctrination.

But still a mask requirement while in school.

I have heard that in many places the school cafeteria workers still make meals for home schooled student's parents to drive by and pickup.   The childern (sp) need proper nutrition, don't you know.   Oh also, those government workers still get a paycheck.

My family have been going to the SAME Christian private academy for decades. NEVER CLOSED. Doesnt teach fag curriculums and we say prayer AND stand at attention to the flag every morning.

As of last year, there is still a 3 year wait for enrollment. Parents in the area know it is NOT a liberal school and the admissions people know if the parents are leftards due to the interview process. I took the same subtle questions when we interview employees as we dont want Dummycrats in our business..
