Personally, I’m really struggling with this. I live in Utah which is one the states with surging cases and my district just came out with the plan to open up full go. Students will wear masks and such, but social distancing isn’t really an option, I have 38 students in one of my classes, lowest is 32...

Basically, I feel nervous for myself, my colleagues, and more importantly my students. There is a much larger population of at risk students then most people realize... I pray nothing happens... but it frustrates me how irresponsible the people in charge are being. With cases surging this isn’t a time to reopen schools... we should be safe above anything. If it is too dangerous for criminals to be in prison, how is it safe for students to be in school?
