So the BOE has announced that 10 schools will not be opening on the 21st due to ventilation issues. Surprise surprise now we wait and see what the UFT does with this.

Are they going to check the ventilation on buses? [Rhetorical]
I am patient with stupidity, but not with those who are proud of it.

The article I read made it seem like it was 21 schools within 10 buildings. I guess I should have specified that. Either way it's fuel for the UFT to not go back on the 21st.

After going to the yard yesterday and being told that Pioneer still has not been issued any guidance I am more than skeptical about starting up on the 21st.

And now after reading the link posted by Buzz it looks even more dismal.

You're right, Hammer ... 21 schools in 10 buildings.

Teachers still not satisfied with the ventilation ... another article today:

aa44hole mayor should have let them strike and see what it is to try and collect UE and have medicaid...

I'll say this: Let just ONE teacher get sick before the 21st and you can fuhgeddaboudit!

If even one teacher contracts the virus between now and the 21st say hello to 2021.

OMG

The same should be for a driver or matron. A mask, a pair of gloves, and the lack of social distance within the bus will make for an interesting news storyline
