This right here! And it doesn’t seem to matter if they have a “D” or an “R” next to their name.

That's not fine.

Public schools in BR are doing this already. On paper, they are saying otherwise. Don't be fooled. How many public school teens are doing work from home this morning? Can you even imagine?

When this virus gets out of here, the shootings are going to soar once again. Kids killing kids. Over playstations and dime bags of stems and seeds.

He just issued a letter that basically shuts school down for the rest of the academic year. It waves all attendance requirements for teachers and students and also waives all testing for the academic year.

The idea that schools could remain open, and applying the same standards and grading systems as they normally do, thereby affecting people's futures and careers, is baffling. Teachers need to understand that their class is not the most important thing in any student's life, especially now.

He did that last night with Cleo fields. Maybe his press conference is to announce that

The attendance requirements were waived in the first roll out last week. Not sure if the testing was in that proclamation.

I don't know anything or have any sauces....but it is my opinion based on what we are currently seeing and what has happened in the last 5 days that this will be official before the weekend is over.

There have been planning meetings and discussions on the effects and logistics of shutting interstates down and stopping domestic travel at the request of people on state government. So far, as a result of those discussions, there has been pushback from local decision makers on truly shutting these things down.

How JBE responds going forward is anyone's guess. But these discussions have been happening.

Why?

Someone explain the reason for a mandated curfew?
