May The Odds Be Ever In Your Favor - Passing Period #56

This Week: With the COVID infection graph approaching an upward, vertical line, schools across the country open after the holidays, and the great experiment with the lives and health of the nation’s youth (and school staff) begins. Chicago teachers make headlines for forcing a temporary move to distance learning, while numerous smaller districts are forced to do the same by the sheer magnitude of the effects of Omicron. Manuel and Jeff look at the data, the obvious risks to health, and ask, are we the crazy ones???  Doesn’t it make sense to temporarily go virtual, until we move past the massive spike in cases? Apparently not. Let corporations and the learning loss hawks rejoice! Get your All of the Above swag, including your own “Teach the Truth” shirt!
