I fundamentally disagree with that approach. Schools must reopen based on science and the safety of our children and teachers, notf politics and wishful thinking. I do agree with the president that schools are critically important for children and families. My first job after i graduated from college was as a High School History teacher.

Thank you for joining us today. Changes to how the state of california deals with covid19 are coming. Today Governor Newsom unveiled a four tier approach using the colors purple, red, orange, and yellow to determine how counties can move toward reopening.

Hours, and still did not receive a proposal from the Chicago Teachers Union leadership and as of this morning, we are still waiting. But to be clear, not patiently, not anymore. We are failing those children by not giving them the option to return to school. Failing grades, depression, isolation, and so much more. My patience for delays from ctu leadership is over.
