Mr. Nick and Mr. Jerry fill more than a few roles within the Kurtz Elementary school district, giving them a chance to see their own kids while supporting dozens of others.
More than a hundred parents and children gathered outside the empty Huron Valley Schools administrative building Wednesday afternoon, rallying to encourage the district to open schools again for face-to-face instruction.
Many carried signs that read, Save our kids, open our schools, and similar sentiments, including a sign carried by Kurtz Elementary third-grader Joslyn Kozub, that stated Open our Schools, virtual SUCKS!!
Carla Kozub brought Joslyn and her three other daughters to the protest with one intent in mind. I really just want to see my children in school where they belong, she said. Districts around us still have face-to-face instruction. This (all remote) is unacceptable. It s stressful on working parents, and I don t know what single parents are doing.
