Yeah, definitely Leni! It's much more important to keep your immune system dormant than for Kindergarters who are just learning about the world see each other's expressions and learn to communicate. Screw our next generation! As long as us adults feel a false sense of security!

But Leni did you get the magic jab? If you did you can double mask like Uncle Joe and St. Anthony and if you decide to stay home and help out with the virtual sessions, you could wear your mask during the zoom classroom sessions just like Uncle Joe did recently.

Some people really shouldn't be teaching little kids.

It is so cruel to teach fear. Those who teach fear to the young in the name of safety will have a special reckoning. My 5th graders and I were told today via a message from the superintendent to all schools and families that, although the state’s covid policies are “continually changing” nevertheless we should remain afraid, continuing to wear masks inside and outside, probably until the end of the year. (Or I suppose they can always rejoin the group of students who stayed on zoom, unadvisedly in my opinion.).

I am exactly Leni’s age and after a year of teaching, masked up, distanced, all the plexiglass and the Sanitation Commandments, two months ago caught a cold, popped a +PCR and had to “teach from home” for a few weeks. All kids in the class had to get PCR as well, not my rule. A few tested +. I was so sorry to disrupt their own school attendance with my corona cold. Sense of smell was (and still is) affected; I was sick but recovered and I’m happy to say that as a skeptic from the beginning about response and numbers I never said “it isn’t real.” But it’s not worth the fear!

Let's not let Leni make policy. You can learn a lot from Kittengarteners.

With or without Covid, Elementary school teacher is an odd choice of profession for an apparent germaphobe.

Retired at age 51... this from the people always whining about how little they are paid.

And you have to love how they frame her paid substitute-teaching gig as "helping out" - like she's doing volunteer work or something.

One, how did she retire at 51? Two I have worked with kids (preschool to high school/special needs) and built up my immunities over the years and hardly ever got sick. Three this woman should not be in the classroom if she is thinking of herself first...doesn't work that way if you truly care about kids.

It would be so much safer to just make all those kids stay home. The rich ones would have personal tutors, but as we really only need a small educated class, and AI will do the rest, spending resources on educating the rest seems so much of a waste of money that could otherwise be spent by those with enough of an education to enjoy it. I think that is the idea. It worked in the Middle Ages, the serfs were happy and did what they were told. WEF said so.

Why do these people even become teachers? It's like becoming a vet and complaining about how dirty animals are when they're sick.

And, no, I'm not comparing kids to animals (okay, maybe a little, but in the best possible way). I'm just saying that certain things just go w/ the territory.

Sounds like covid woukd be pretty cool to add to her checklist of diseases!

all coming from a person that ranks 2nd or 3rd in careers with the best immune system. So ironic Leni, that the "features" of this past year did the opposite of what you think they did.

Pro face painter for 10+ years here. I'm immune to pretty much everything you can catch by being coughed on by a child. And it's great.

Teacher Leni (short for Lenin?) is a narcissist who believes everything and everyone is there for her benefit. Someone please remind the sow that when you’re immunosuppressed, your own bacteria in your colon can kill you. The kindergartners have zero to do with this. The evil wench needs to get a different job and only young and gun loving teachers should ever be in charge or such tender youngsters

Absolutely! WTF!

It's a very sad story bc compromised immune system is hard.

But if one isn't fit to the do the job, find another one. The kids are the ones that need adjusting, you have. This women should go in an office job where she has minimal contacts.

That hag should be replaced by someone who isn't compromised in their ability to "bear with children" naturally. Those little shits are our future, i don't want them to be crippeled either in habits or let alone physically - linked below is what toddlers do when you put a muzzle on them, notice what continues when its removed ... This is the "i can't bweef" that matters to me.

Anyone else see a problem with Leni retiring at 51 from the long arduous journey of teaching kindergarten?
