    @LOL LOL I can appreciate your point of view but the condescending tone isn’t really necessary when you yourself don’t have all the facts. I imagine the kids sent home are doing online learning rather than just treating it as a suspension. Perhaps the student was told this via the online class? No need to try to make someone to look the fool when you could just ask for more clarification in a polite tone.

    @ Mrs Mary. You said that on Dec 2nd your grandson got sent home for 14 days for quarantine but you over heard the teacher make a comment to him and his classmates on supposably the 8th. How can that be if he was suppose to be home for 14 days? Sounds to me like you need to get your days right if you are going to publish a bunch of bull hockey. Just saying.
    God bless our teachers.

    As a very concerned grandparent my oldest grandson was sent home Monday after being exposed by a student the date of exposure was Dec 2. So he has to quarantine for 14 days and I understand that it’s CDC guidelines BUT why was other students allowed to return just 2 days and yesterday I overheard his teacher tell him and classmates that there’s a lockdown coming in January 2021. Why is this teacher putting fear into these kids it’s not her place to do so
