Well, I started back to school today for my 45th year in front of a classroom. It was strange and a bit disconcerting with all the protocols, masks, etc, however, and it’s a big however, it was exciting and kinda fun. It was GREAT to actually see, greet and kid with the kids. My classes are small (the largest is 16) and the room is large so I certainly don’t face the same obstacles and dangers that I would at the high school setting I “lived” in for most of those years. The glimmer of hope I felt was how well the kids were doing with the masks and spacing an being conscious about everything. I never felt uncomfortable or worried. Now I know it was day 1 of Covid School Year 1, but I’m hoping this works, though, of course there are far more variables beyond simply how the kids and adults act at school, nonetheless hope springs eternal
