@rlamartini @Ignavisinflames @holley_sullivan @lisalibrarian @lllbatonrouge Of course kids in school will increase adult cases. There's only so much adults can do to protect themselves. I can wear a mask but it doesn't eliminate my risk of contracting COVID, esp if those around me don't wear masks, which kids likely won't as said in the original tweet.

@rlamartini @lisalibrarian @lllbatonrouge What about the teachers, admin, paraprofessionals, counselors, librarians, and all other adults in schools?? What about our mortality rate?

Me: Oh, oka-

S2: wait, teaching? Aren't we reviewing today?
Me: we are. I'm teaching the review.
S2: but shouldn't we already know it?
Me: yes, theoretically.

[Nadine Stringham @MillennialMathT]

Me: *rings wireless doorbell to get senior's attention.
S1: that sound is SO annoying.
Me: it's MORE annoying that you're all talking while I'm trying to teach.
