So why the hell did Randy Andy think a premature bomb message would be a good idea? Both districts now have emergency board meetings so parents can come scream about their snowflake tyranny of wearing masks, OR the snowflake selfishness of not wearing masks The civil war of American pettiness and snowflake appropriation continues. From both sides.

Maybe it's just me and my family, but masks as a thing are one of the least pressing problems in our life. Good to be blessed with rational thinking...and real problems.

LMAO! "Randy Andy" haven't heard that one yet!


Totally agree monster the way this whole thing was handled was a complete train wreck for NYS confusing everyone from parents to school boards. Ridiculous.

Like Roc said stop moving the damn goalposts.

Not even just high schoolers what about younger kids on weekends or at sports!

Yup - but HSers are literally leaving campus in the middle of the day and then back to wear masks "for safety".

Our NCDHHS secretary also came out with this gem "most HS kids can't be vaccinated because the vaccine is only approved for those over the age of 16". What? The cutoff here in NC is August 31 to start school....most kids are 16 sometime in their SOPHOMORE year. (This was obv before they approved it for the lower age range).
