San Diego County Prepares For Possible In-Person Teaching For Illegal Migrant Children
More than 70 of the girls housed at the convention center have tested positive for COVID-19
San Diego County has answered a call by HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra to house unaccompanied minors who cross the U.S. border illegally. Under the federally funded HHS Refugee Resettlement Program, children who cross the border without parents will be offered food, shelter, and healthcare until they can be processed. In San Diego, 70 of the 700 girls currently being housed at the San Diego Convention Center have tested positive for COVID-19.
More children are expected to arrive each day until the shelter reaches it’s socially-distanced capacity of 1400,
More than 700 migrant girls ages 13-17 are now at the @SDConventionCtr with a plane arriving to San Diego last night. About 30 of them tested positive for #Covid19. @ChrisNews8 reports from downtown San Diego on the care these girls are receiving as they wait for asylum. @CBS8 pic.twitter.com/3jMClrJhEH

The San Diego Union-Tribune quotes Becerra:
“The County and City of San Diego has generously offered to partner with the Department as we abide by the law to provide unaccompanied children with food, sanitation and shelter. Our task is to protect the health and safety of unaccompanied children, who are under the care of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, while they go through their immigration proceedings.”
The convention center is scheduled to be used for 90 days, with the children staying on average of 30-35 days, until they can be released to relatives in the United States or with “other sponsors,” according to Fox 5 in San Diego.
But these children aren’t only getting food, shelter, and medical care. San Diego is soliciting teachers to show up at the convention center to provide in-person education to the migrant children staying there.
Teachers will be sent to the San Diego Convention Center to provide in-person learning for the migrants being sheltered there.
But, many schools across San Diego have yet to resume in-person classes. https://t.co/arQL4NcGRz

Wait a minute… So you’re saying it is ok for San Diego teachers to teach in person… just not to San Diego children? https://t.co/jE56xYcQT3

The support for providing education for the illegal immigrant children at the convention center comes after a long battle with teacher’s unions in the district to set a date to reopen schools. The district’s website states that schools will finally reopen on April 12th, after being closed to students for more than a year.

Biden policies make me a second class citizen in my own country.
If you are white, productive, lsw abiding, or any combination thereof, you’ve been a second class citizen for decades.
No Ben Kent, it’s worse than that. You are no longer considered a “citizen” (second class or otherwise) in this country. You’re considered a “subject” that simply needs to STFU and do as you’re told by your elite betters now in power running the country.
Democrat policy is Americans, second, third, and Pro-Choice.,
Lol lol lol
Hard and often Liberals
What in the world is it going to take?
The Government has just announced that all American citizens must go to the nearest bridge and jump off
Thinking good 30 % would do it
Where are the Homeless going to be put that were being housed in that convention center? Are they just tossing them out?
Why not? Most are just Americans. Veterans at that.
To Kyrrat, They quietly kicked the homeless out of the convention center last week. The illegals are being moved into the same spot and will be educated in 6 different rooms or sections, plus one more if they need to expand it in the future (I have exact details but promised it to Project Veritas first)
For a decent fee, say $60/hour, I am willing to take 100, or so, students, and teach them english, math, history, geography and “life skills”, on a schedule of five days per week, six hours per day for instruction in a nine hour day.
I guarantee that some of them will learn how to learn, all of them will know some absolute facts about America and interested students will be able to resolve compound fractions and even start thinking about alternative solutions to ordinary computational stuff in life. All of that in less than one year.
If you want more… I could show you how to have experienced students teaching new students how to do those things.
“Inquiring Minds” want to know. Hell, yes, they do want to know how to parse through blather, filler and empty words of indoctrination.
But, you lack qualifications. No degree in education, and, more important, no union card.
I’ve got a feeling that the teachers will be getting paid WAY WAY WAY more than normal.
I was there, outside of the San Diego convention center today! Homeland Security and federal agents were all over, preventing people from looking in to the windows on the upper levels of the convention center even though it is a public building, funded and owned by taxpayers.
You will not believe what I overheard and legally recorded. If Project Veritas replies to me, I’m sending them the exclusive recording. The people running the show are making up the plan as they go, they are completely unprepared for this from what I overheard.
They were discussing the exact locations (numbered rooms) in the convention center where the teaching will take place and said they will probably expand it. NOBODY OUTSIDE OF THE CIRCLE KNOWS THIS. They were concerned about blocking “hotspots” where people (San Diego taxpayers and the media) could look in to see what was going on. The woman running the show was fawning over Mayor Gloria’s interview on CNN (I didn’t see it). She was giddy about it and the entire process of teaching illegals while the children of San Diego citizens still cannot go to a public school.
“More children are expected to arrive each day until the shelter reaches it’s socially-distanced capacity of 1400”
$20 says they will blow straight past that number like the Duke Boys blow straight past speed limit signs.

Sorry about that, Cloudflare puked on the first submission, and I had no idea it got through anyway.
I’m sure those Union teachers will be right over to teach COVID positive kids in person and not by sending them a few pages from a google search downloaded off the internet.
Will they teach them English or is that racist? /sarc
You will note this is all done without the action of any of the elected officials of San Diego.
The convention center contracted with homeland security on its own without any input from any elected officials in San Diego county.
So they are indeed making it up as they go along because the San Diego health department has not beenconsulted about this corona positive children.
The health department has made no plans to treat the children because they have not been involved in the process at all.
