They've actually closed schools in my area for 2 days for mass sickness.
Weird. I don't remember that ever happening in all my years of school. Maybe it's a recent, post COVID thing?
- Fomite 2y agoIt's a thing that some districts have done for a decade or two now, but it's fairly rare. I wrote a paper on alternatives to full school closure in 2008.
- JohnFen 2y agoSome districts have done it for far longer than that. It has occasionally happened in the schools in my area at least 100 years.
- pfisherman 2y agoThere was no official shut down here. But the teachers and about 45% of the kids @ child’s grade level were out sick last week. So was definitely not business as usual either.
