keep the schools open. but yet you have individual school districts making other decisions. we already know how detrimental it has been to have schools shut down and now we have omicron which is not more transmissible but more mild. what do you make of all this? you write about it a lot. the one thing i would really have to emphasize is the importance of keeping not only keeping schools open but keeping kids in school. there are tools we have to do that. we know schools can be operated safely and in general schools are a low-risk environment. the question is how do we have schools without quaranty. the test to stay program is a good option for a lot of schools. hopefully we ll continue to see more of that. the other thing we have to have in our mind is the staffing issues. so to be extent that teachers get covid or exposed to covid they may struggle with staffing and something i would like to see policymakers support. we need to prioritize kids staying in school where they
made. we don t know who was making them but still getting this information that there were this flurry of calls as the case is unfolding. cnn s randi kaye, thank you so much. today renewed focus on keeping kids in school during the pandemic and the key tool that is hard to come by. stay with us. tipated? set yourself free with fleet. gentle constipation relief in minutes. little fleet. big relief. try it. feel it. feel that fleet feeling.

Stacey Whomsley
Age: 43
Position Sought: School Director for Region 3 in the West Chester Area School District, covering Chester and Delaware counties in East Bradford, Thornbury, West Goshen, and Westtown townships.
The primary election on May 18 will be extremely important for parents. Along with the three questions pertaining to a constitutional amendment that would reign in a governorâs emergency powers, there are contentious school board races all across the region.
For the last year, parents, children, science, and common sense have been pushed aside by many incumbent school board members who obstinately kept our schools closed. This primary is the opportunity for parents to send those incumbents who failed our children packing and to ensure that we are not faced with closures again in the fall.
