My school district on the TON Reservation is shut down for two weeks [View all]

We had cases of COVID in the one of the elementary schools and with the dynamics of families out here, the Superintendent closed all sites to in-person learning for two weeks as people quarantine.

My students are unhappy, I am too, but it is what it is.

But because I teach on a Native American reservation, the edicts from Gov. Butter Pecan don't apply.

Masks are required everywhere in public on the TON. Teachers, admin, and students are required to wear. The only place they can be taken off is on the athletic fields, like when I assistant coach for football.

With the Delta variant and people fighting battles over vaccines and masks, we are never going to go back to normal.

Thanks for turning medicine and science into a political issue, TFG.
