Also, it'll be interesting to see how Hazleton Area enforces the 6 foot distancing between desks, since the schools were already overcrowded to begin with. Teaching outside I guess? That would be awesome until winter. Or more video chat teaching I suppose.

I agree with you, those are the only parts of school that don't suck! 

I also think it's dumb that they didn't postpone school, consider the quarantine to be their summer break and have them go back in and finish over the summer.  God forbid the teachers don't get to go to the Jersey shore all summer!  

 

One problem with that is a lot of these school don't have AC and it gets fucking hot in these cinder block schools, especially in the city.

537 today

A full 2% of the population of the city of allentown has tested positive for Covid-19. 

 

I had a customer on the phone who volunteered at the polls up in Neffs by Slatington and she said only one poll worker wore a mask.  She said masks contribute to deaths because it cuts off oxygen supply.

I also heard it will be up to individual school districts.

i get that graduation, prom and senior trip is a big deal, but please dont forget that for some seniors a few decades ago their trip was to Korea, or some other lovely place, that wasnt a beach just like Wildwood.  .  Like i said, things could be way worse.

How much do you pay in property tax?

Virtually zero since I rent. No clue what the schools are like in Malvern. But Hazleton's school district population is 10,900. The busses were always full when I was in school. Now they're halving capacity since 1 student per seat, so I guess double the fleet of busses? But like Steeze said, maybe it's up to each district.
