“Each of his exposures was from someone who is vaccinated.” The mental gymnastics of the propagandized is a sight to behold.

Surely the schools have the data and see the bullshit about the vaccines being effective against infection.

Schools can't even teach kids basic math and writing skills anymore. What makes you think the people in charge are qualified to read and interpret data at all, much less use it to inform an effective policy?

Not to mention the fact that even if some of the officials do disagree with mask and vaccination policies, they typically are yes-men who will always go along to get along and not make waves by raising any questions or objections.

The schools are being run by the equivalent of 1930's pre-Nazi German health officials, or those who assisted in witch hunting in the middle ages. Humans have not changed, only the technological level of the tools used to torture those of us who are not struck blind by the current Mass Formation.

Correct, I have gone round and round with the admins and the school nurse - they flat out ignore anything other than the 'cdc' guidance. Even at my kids private, which could if it choose follow the science. School sports requires the vaccine, "because the sports league voted on it" but the school did not require it for attendance (because they were getting a law suit from me : -)

This is what is so very evil. They know and yet they persist.

Every doctor, nurse, and health care official in the country knows this or other similar outrage / coercion is going on DAILY and yet have you heard a peep out of official health care?

For the mom in Minnesota (and other moms too), this video may be helpful. All public officials have to be bonded/insured (school principal, district board, etc.). This mom put a claim against the principal’s bond and she won. Worth watching!

The federal government is giving the schools money to uphold these mandates. They're going right around the state governments. I believe this is through the Cares Act. They work directly with schools and give them covid money. Just like everything else in this government, they're using money and force to shove this down our throat.

This website tells people how much each district received. Our governors know about this, surprised we don't hear more except that they love the money too.

I just want everyone to remember this nonsense the next time the teachers--in your city, your state, your county--need to negotiate a new contract. Or better still, the next time teachers go on strike for higher pay and more benefits, etc.

Please do NOT tell me it's the teachers UNION. The individual teachers ARE the union. The teachers can push back on their union; they can push back in their schools; they can push back in their states.

And the ones who don't are trying to leach off taxpayers so they can sit at home and NOT teach.

I lump ALL teachers together. Do not tell me how wonderful your kids' teachers have been. Perhaps they're good teachers. BUT failure to stand up to their unions makes them part of this problem.

If teachers stand up and say, "I'm not going to be the 'mask police,' this absurdity ends a whole lot faster.

This is a predictable consequence of the federal takeover of education. Now the administrators and other staff aren't trying to please the students and parents, they are trying to please the bureaucrats in DC who control the school's funding.

We need to get government out of this industry and a whole lot of others, in order to take back the ability to make our own decisions.

https://simulationcommander.substack.com/p/my-freedom-protects-you-your-freedom

So little by little the government grows. More and more of our decisions are handed over to regulators. Mostly we don’t notice. Sure, your gas cans no longer work and your water pressure sucks — and FORGET about playing lawn darts — but who really has the time to do anything about it?

But pretty soon the situation is dire. As more money and power is controlled by Washington, companies lobby government for favors and stop caring about their customers. The government ‘asks’ corporations to stop “misinformation” in an attempt to circumvent the First Amendment. Then you can’t work in healthcare unless you’re ‘vaccinated’ against covid — because government is paying for the service. (Where in the Constitution is government granted the authority to control our healthcare decisions, again?)

Now everything political is a fight to the death, because it’s IMPERATIVE that ‘the other guy’ doesn’t gain control of this bureaucratic juggernaut and turn its eye upon you like an even scarier Eye of Sauron. After all, that other guy might sic the IRS on you, or maybe the FBI.

The only way to reverse this dangerous trend and get the government back under control is to remember why America was great in the first place — freedom. Not the Joe Biden version of “freedom” where you’re free to do what he says, but REAL freedom. When the government doesn’t have power over your life, you don’t care who the president is.

It was apparently worse than that in NY State. The mask mandate was rescinded and the teachers turned away any students who showed up unmasked anyway. They had no legal authority to do so. It was straight up lawlessness.

The mask mandate was ruled unconstitutional, then there was a full stay put on the mandate while waiting for appeals. Then Hochul pushed the mandate back 10 days to Feb. 10th but I don't think the school kids mandate is set to be released until Feb. 21st. I think, if they don't out right pass A8378, the bill that puts COVID vaccines on the kids schedule for school she will dangle masks, like a carrot in front of our faces, you know to "nudge" our behavior like the tweet from Leanna Wen (the CNN MD who is insane). I think we are headed towards, if you get your child vaccinated, then they don't have to wear a mask at school. I that case, we will continue to homeschool for a 3rd year because my kids refuse to wear a mask all day and I refuse to get them vaccinated. I hope that enough people are angry enough that they vote for Zeldin. He says he is against the mandates... My husband does not think a republican could ever win the NY governor's seat.

This is so hard, Kathleen. My youngest (15) is a freshman at an all-boys school He LOVES his school and he loves being with his friends, but he knows my feelings on both the vax and masks (adamantly against). I have permitted him to stay at school because he really is an extroverted kid who relishes human companionship. He tells me all the boys know that the masking stuff is complete BS and that they push the line with them as much as they can. I am barely tolerating the masking of him for now, but he knows that the vax is a big, bold line for me. At this point, kids need to start revolting en masse. It would be worth the detentions/suspensions handed out.

Cuomo was your typical "old school" pol. You knew he was corrupt and slimy and bought. Hochul, however, is a true believer (mostly in herself). She is drunk on power - I feel like the exercise of it has actually changed her appearance. She revealed her level of delusion and grandiosity when she gave that speech at a downstate church and talked about G-d choosing her to be a vaccine messenger. This woman is next level craven.

VOUCHERS would go a long way toward making the schools accountable to not just parents but all taxpayers.

Let parents use the vouchers for home schools, parochial schools, charter schools, private schools.

And don't get me started about all the administrators sucking money from school budgets.

Here’s my little story. My kid is 2.5 years old. We enrolled her in a school in a posh suburb well north of nyc. The land of the liberals as I like to say. Last summer we vetted the school and through friends we enrolled her for the fall bc the school was not enforcing masks and covid insanity. We wanted her to have contact w other kids etc. Fast forward to the end of this year amidst the omicron wave here in ny. It started in nov when gov yokel hochul brought back the mask mandate. The school immediately sent out an email saying masks were mandatory for the kids. Ok I said as long as they don’t enforce it In Person or try to hold her down to put one on her We would try it out and send her. The kids also had a xmas concert that my kid was looking forward to singing and seeing Santa. Another reason I went with the flow. Also the school was not crazy enforcing this on 2 yr olds once she was in there so all was ok so I thought. I refuse to put my kid in a mask and also taught her to actually throw it on the floor when asked to put one on. Resist was my policy and my kid did just that. They attached the mask to her clothes in case the state or some ny rat called doh on them. Remember the school got PPP money and was now aligned w the powers who have given them money. She never wore the mask and was happy going. Now the xmas concert. The owner of the school decided to move it outdoors at the 11th hour due to c19. That morning it was 22 degrees. If you could see the agony on these kids faces in the videos I took it would sadden all of you. Concert completed. Winter break for the holiday. The day b4 the start of the new semester an email comes out at 6pm that the school is closed for another week due to kids testing positive with no symptoms. Only in ny would you start testing 2 yr olds without symptoms. Insanity and stupidity. My blood pressure continues to rise. The final straw was the owner of the school sending an email out on a Thursday b4 the Monday they were due back after the covid closure. It said all children shall be PCR tested b4 coming back on Monday. So hurry up and make your appointment as pediatricians are very busy. The owner also required PCR neg test any time a child feels sick or comes back from a vacation. That was our final straw. We pulled her right out of school and also saved the money we were going to spend sending her. Hit these people where it hurts. I will use my $ as power against these insane covid sick people. They are literally destroying these kids up here and many parents accept it. Hey they have jobs that need to pay the 5k a month mortgage. It’s disgusting they put themselves and the dollar first.

Good for you! My two young children have been in daycare/preschool and now in the kindergarten class at the daycare facility since June 2020. Thankfully they have never "closed" because of cases. 95% of the kids attending do not wear mask as they are not forcing it on them. I have taught my 5 year old to understand that masks are useless against a virus that is way smaller than the holes in the fabric of the mask. Now we call the people walking around outside with their masks on Zombies! He helps me create slogans for signs that we hang on the light poles in our neighborhood (right behind the public high school): "KIDS! take your mask off, and throw it in the trash! Breathe, Smile, Live! Remember, it's your right!"

Everything about this is such bullshit, the absolute sickening part is that we as parents are letting it happen. I have decided that my kids will not attend the public school next fall if masks or vaccines are a requirement. At this point I am pretty sure I can do a better job teaching him very little compared to the nonsense he may be exposed to in public education.

UGH! deep breaths, walks in the sun and lotsa wine!

My son's high school Covid policy: If they are vaccinated and test positive they DO NOT need to stay home - symptoms or not. If they are unvaccinated and test positive, then they MUST stay home for 5 days, then wear a mask to school for 5 days. Or, they can stay home the full 10 days. My son recently tested positive and had no symptoms except his french fries at work tasted "weird." We immediately started him on early treatment (sorry, Alex, IVM DOES work), and he tested negative two days later. I'm done with masks, so I just told him to stay home for the ten days, which he loved. Education has become a complete joke and we are going to pay for all of these ridiculous rules and virtue signaling in the future.

Fingers crossed, my naturally immune kids have avoided Quarantine in our mask-optional school district. Our first confirmed exposure did recently require Test to Stay - but my kid tested negative with all three rapid tests over a five day period. She also never had symptoms. It is absurd, the hoops we jump through in order to avoid Q, the strange emails I have sent when I thought my kid needed a day out of school because of normal not feeling well (phrasing it in a way to avoid dreaded COVID protocol) (thankfully the school nurse had walked me through this when she sent my kid home one day). My naturally immune spouse has to test weekly at work; still no positive result. And, yet, my employer requires me to get vaxxed for the safety of my co-workers and families - so I'm looking for a new job!!!!

oh and the absurdity I feel when I have made my kid wear a mask at school - not because they work (they do not) but because if they wear a stupid mask and they get exposed they aren't required to Quarantine!!!!

We will speak with our votes. WA state public schools all have levy’s this winter to pass and we’ve decided to not let one levy pass until Covid/mask restrictions are lifted. I pulled my son out of his private school in fall 2020 when it was clear they weren’t going to lift masking. I’m a proud homeschool mom now, but I still pay for the public schools from property tax and many of the kids in the church I serve at have to go to public school, so i am speaking for them in the best way I know how, voting no on the school bonds until they lift the Covid protocols

You might also consider withholding your vote until the school board(s) sign pledges to refuse government funding. Maybe except the school lunch program. It is my understanding that the feds only contribute 10-15% to education. And for that, they get to exercise too much control.

I'm a teacher in a "progressive" private middle school that discriminates against the unvaccinated students with the quarantine protocol, too. Nearly all of the students that have been out sick with Covid since Christmas break are vaccinated, however. But "exposed" vaccinated kids do not need to quarantine if they do not develop symptoms, while the unvaccinated kids must do so. None of my unvaccinated students actually developed any symptoms, but they must quarantine for 10 days, REGARDLESS OF NEGATIVE PCR-TESTS.

Additionally, the mask mandate is strictly enforced by my psychopathic corona-crazy colleagues, while I never one single time have told a student to pull up their mask. I also tell my students that masks are an evidence free intervention that has zero scientific legitimacy.

I'm essentially in open rebellion against the mask mandate now: I've spoken out in meetings, with my principal, and have now written a letter to my Head of School asking to go mask optional. I posted the letter on my substack for anyone who'd like to read it or who might find it useful in their own battles against barbaric mask policies in schools:
