I will say again: absolutely no one destabilized public education last year more than Randi Weingarten. School choice movement owes her a big thank you. We noticed that public schools controlled by her stayed closed while the private schools in same areas opened. We saw.
Your whole family didn't get a cold last year because you cut off every important human thing. You didn't see friends, take in culture, dine out, go to worship, travel. In 2021, get a cold, it's worth it.

What if schools just stick to math and reading? As a parent I would be comfortable with exactly none of this being discussed with my child by anyone else. We have these conversations at home and that’s where they should remain.
