Has the mayor made a decision about schools? With cases increasing It seems to me that it would not be wise to subject our children at risk. Will we have an option of homeschooling our students like South Florida is offering? There is no way that we can safe distance our children in classrooms unless we go from 20 students to maybe 15 to ten students per classroom. Is the state going to provide extra sanitizer to all schools? Take temperatures of all students? What about social distancing on busses? Are students going to be required to wear masks? Schools are breeding grounds for passing germs to others.
I don’t see it wise to open schools if they can’t provide the safety of our children.
Is there a count for Warrington? Or maybe that is included in the Pensacola numbers.
