Also he keeps saying that he doesn't want to micromanage but from people I've talked to at dd's school and another district (the one who finally decided to go virtual) Dewine is giving them very mixed messages on calls so they are afraid to make plans. This was also brought up by an administrator on our covid task force that sits on the calls at our school My director has repeatedly complained about the lack of clear guidance from the state. I think that is my biggest problem they can either open safely (which I think with the right guidance and guidelines) or they can't. He can't say that he is letting them make decisions that will work for them but not really.

This free for all has made reopening plans much harder on schools.

I think we have time but he may. I think he is saying that now, but with school cases going up all over the country he may change his mind, but he also may be just done closing things and law suits.

Summit County Health Dept just recommended no in-person classes for K-12 to start the year. So now we wait to see if the school plan changes. I wish everything wasn't so last minute. I understand that's how this virus is operating, but it's just frustrating.

I understand that's how this virus is operating, but it's just frustrating. Most of ours did, but one district had parents outside the school buildings yesterday with signs saying keep the plan and let us play sports etc.

Big Ten has cancelled football. Finally. Is it official?
I saw the letter that UM coaches put out that they have been doing good test wise so that is why they are pushing to play because it can be done safely and they called them rumors

99% sure it’s official. It’s “leaked” to the news outlets right now, but a friend of mine with insider info actually told me earlier this morning. He said the official announcement is coming tomorrow.

I would expect most leagues will cancel. It sounds like the PAC12 has also voted to cancel but BIG12 and ACC are on the fence still. The SEC is trying to get teams to join them for a season, bc of course they are 🙄

I saw the MAC cancelled, not that they are big name. But I imagine most will cancel. As they should.

Our coach also tested positive but none of the players

It was also the conference for my old job, so I've heard all about it from old coworkers... but their football team was already bleeding them dry by a LOT, so this is just adding on. It's a mess. Everything is a mess. Burn the year down and start it over.

Time has no meaning. There are no days. It's still March, but also almost Christmas.

Someone said something about Tiger King being 3 months ago and I'm like only 3 months?? But also, how is it August? And halfway through at that! Time means nothing to me these days aside from when I have an appointment. Even the grass has slowed to the point that I just check my properties and mow as needed right now.

I can’t get it to post but Jon tweeted something about schools I saw Husted retweeted something from DeWine about grants for schools for increasing broadband connectivity and providing mobile hotspots. I wonder if this is going to come with a push to move everyone online or encourage more schools to at least start online.

They talked about that last week but our school still doesn’t have money to give our chrome books which is why they are pushing so hard for in person

Today’s tweet was something like what’s worse for the kids going in to school and playing sports and possibly catching covid or what the kids will do with their spare time

It was posted to his personal twitter versus his lt. governor one. I have a hard time believing that he is really thinking about what is “best for kids” and is thinking more about what is best in terms of $$$.

Yeah I feel a way about that tweet and I’m guessing he did too since he posted on his own personal account but still people read it. It could also just be he eats crackers for me but just because my kid isn’t going to school or playing sports doesn’t mean she will be in trouble
