NYC Kids Must Go Remote if Parents Do Not Agree to the School Performing COVID Test Without Them

Posted by Mary Chastain on December 23, 2020 20 Comments

I came across this New York Post article about 12,000 kids not allowed to return to school after the Christmas holidays over lack of COVID-19 consent forms. Interest piqued because government sucks. It turns out Mayor Bill de Blasio required a consent form to test your child for COVID without a parent present and would not accept test results from a private doctor.

Last week, during an online address that had to do primarily with education, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said frankly, "Our mission is to redistribute wealth." Apparently, the exodus of taxpayers from Manhattan is not happening quickly enough for the mayor, and he wanted to speed it along.

Chicago Schools Hiring People to Supervise Kids in Class While Teachers Work Remotely

Posted by Mary Chastain on December 15, 2020 33 Comments

I tried hard to word a decent headline but the Chicago Public Schools (CPS) makes it impossible. The teachers will not return to the classroom with the students in January. So the cash-strapped city will hire supervisors to be in classes and at the school with the students. This is because the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) refuses to get back to work.

Posted by Mary Chastain on December 08, 2020 21 Comments

The Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) already proved they don't care about kids because reopening the Chicago Public Schools (CPS) is based on "sexism, racism, and misogyny." The CTU filed an injunction, asking "the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board to halt the return to in-person learning until terms can be 'determined by good-faith collective bargaining instead of by executive fiat.'" The CTU also said, "a strike isn't out of the question."

Science has shown us for a while that schools are pretty safe from COVID-19 spreads. That didn't stop New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio from shutting down the schools due to a spike in cases in the city.

Former FOX News host Megyn Kelly recently revealed on her podcast that she has pulled two of her children out of their private New York City school over what she sees as political propaganda.

Biden’s Education Transition Team Includes Employees from Nation’s Largest Teachers Unions

Posted by Kemberlee Kaye on November 12, 2020 30 Comments

If the 'rona lockdowns showed us anything, it's how completely disinterested teachers unions are in education. Teachers unions nationwide used the shutdowns to demand ridiculous policy concessions having nothing to do with educating children, so of course Biden plans to add them to the Department of Education.
