It is not safe for students and teachers to return to in-person classes during the ongoing pandemic.

Tech is going to reopen in mid-August. 37,000 students will back to Lubbock. The 9 weeks online instruction will give our community/ and hospitals a buffer to accommodate the increasing cases.

We all want our kids to go back to school, but the risks for children, teachers, staff, and the broader community are simply too great right now.

Please keep schools closed until it is safe for our kids and faculty for the entire region

Between the influx of TTU students coming back to town and the re-opening of public schools, Lubbock is headed toward an even worse public health situation than we are currently experiencing. For the health of students, teachers, and families, and with an eye on hospital capacity, please issue an order to keep schools closed for the first grading period.

I do NOT want any child in a classroom. This virus is too dangerous to risk children's lives. Please keep the schools closed for now.

Children have no voice in this fight but they are some of our most valuable citizens. Sacrificing our children is something no politician will ever come back from.

Families are agonizing over a choice they should not have to make.

Schools have always functioned as community petri dish, resulting in waves of infection cycling with school year, spring break returns, and letting out for the summer. With a disease roughly ten times as fatal as influenza, it is wholly irresponsible to allow the community petri dishes to reopen.

Until covid is under control and schools have the needed space, staff, PPEs, and materials needed to thoroughly sanitize, classes have to be online.

We cannot wait for our mayor, governor, and president to wake up. Please help us keep our most vulnerable safe.

Knowing what we know about this aggressive virus that can and will kill, please don't let children be the research labs to further study it. Please!
