That will not be disinfected with regularity Not because of staff But funding My colleagues, families, and students will be in our building No masks required The collection of droplets in the air may be lethal for us Especially when you consider how people have been living But there is no consideration We are teachers We serve the children We will just have to fill in the gaps, as usual Take temperatures (And buy thermometers to take temperatures) Disinfect classrooms (And buy cleaning products to disinfect classrooms) (And buy gloves) Wash hands frequently Hmm...where? Only one staff bathroom Kids' bathrooms run out of soap And paper towels Be a team player Social distance But don't make colleagues social distance Or students Be a team player Teach extra kids when colleagues are absent Because there will be no subs And teachers' increased risk is not a concern But we must have school! No school is bad! Because babysitters are a must Not because education is a must I say: Why can't we do all virtual school? They say: What about the businesses? To which I respond: Who will be left to patronize them?
