As grandparents of 4 students who attend Canton schools, we’ve personally seen how hard it’s been doing remote learning. It’s hard for working parents. It’s hard for the teachers. It’s hard for the kids. It’s even hard for the grandparents who’re trying to help during this time. What’s not hard is knowing that this is absolutely what needs to be happening at this time (remote learning). The numbers in Fulton Country have been going up at an alarming rate and that’s without students in schools. We must protect the kids, the entire school staff and our community. Do not open schools until it is safe to do so.
As a working parent remote learning has been challenging and hard at times. We have been very fortunate to have grandparents step in and help. By sending them back to school it puts them at risk. I also have 1 child who is at high risk. I don't want my children to lose a sibling or another grandparent. I'm totally appalled that our school board and superintendent would even consider reopening with the numbers increasing.
My preference is that my children not be required to attend in person classes at this time due to the pandemic and increasing COVID-19 numbers in our area. Teachers should be given a choice as well without jeopardizing their employment.
As the parent of a special needs child who can’t wear a mask and an immunocompromised child with pulmonary issues this is not the time to return to school. Our local collages are struggling to keep students safe and they are adults! I am not willing to risk the lives of our teachers, staff members, or children for the inconvenience of having to juggle more on my own plate. I know it is hard, I work 2 jobs and have 5 kids in school but I would rather have safe, healthy kids and community than kids who went to school.
I have a grandson in pre-K, and his father lives with me in Canton, while his mother lives a few blocks away. Sending these kids back to school in any way, shape or form right now is not only risky and dangerous, but it just going to add more cases and prolong the time until things can return to normal. Patience. Patience. Patience. JUST WAIT until the time is more safe to open the buildings, please.

As someone who is high risk this idea of going back is way to dangerous and unsafe, for both me and many others.
