I think it goes beyond that.

School districts in my state hire teachers for the whole school year. I'll bet these unions are afraid some districts will decide not to retain most of the teachers for next school year, and will simply have one teacher for every 70-80 students.

That is being discussed (going online full time).

But online/homeschool doesn’t work for most kids.

Prepping for the midterms, then they’ll find another “pandemic” after that, this one worked so well.

Internal polling must be really bad for the Dems

That and the other likely thing that parents are starting to realize that home-schooling and private schooling makes for better and smarter kids.

One positive that might end up from all of this is that the far left crapped in their own beds and they aren't smart enough to figure out how to clean the sheets. I think we will eventually see a drastic move away from on-site college courses and more at home study which will kill a lot of the "professors" we have now.
