LEWES, Del. – Some teachers at the Cape Henlopen School District in Delaware are asking for more support during the pandemic to help put their minds at ease.
“This fear of the unknown is more fearful now and abundant than ever,” said Lacey Brown, president of the Cape Henlopen Education Association.
Brown says she feels there’s been a lack of transparency from the superintendent on the actual number of students and teachers who’ve tested positive for COVID-19.
“Just the reporting of how many cases of teachers and students and how many people if people are quarantined or isolating or how much of our staff is affected because people talk and how much you hear at one building is different than what is actually happening,” said Brown.
