The Time for School Choice Is Now

On Monday, Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), the nation's second-largest public school system, announced that every child will not be returning to their classrooms this fall and will be forced to attend classes via digital, at-home learning protocols.

On the very same day, St. John Bosco High School, a prestigious Catholic school in Los Angeles county just seventeen miles from downtown LA announced it'd open their classrooms to its students for full-time, five-day-a-week learning next month.

What's the difference between Bosco and LAUSD? Why has the private school figured out how to accommodate basic COVID safety protocols for regular classroom functions and the government-run school system can't?

It appears the difference could be the California teacher's union whose leadership presented a fact-challenged paper making a series of demands on the school district to meet before their membership would agree to return to the classroom.

    1. She's a bleeding-heart liberal. She made it virtually IMPOSSIBLE for kids in the county to fail just to make herself look better. A diploma in Wicomico just means you're alive and breathing...attendance doesn't even matter under her.

  6. Here we are in the midst of out THIRD set of racial riots since 1968. SAME behavior, SAME blaming, and SAME result. Why isn't this taught in school? Most don't ever know there was racial unrest in 1968. King, Gray, Floyd... When do we stop naming streets and begin behaving?
