Heroic teachers during pandemic

School has started and I think we all have added the teachers in our midst to the list of our hometown heroes.

I am always moved when I hear about all the extra things that teachers do to help their students learn. With the coronavirus, they are doing even more, trying to keep everyone well.

I know a couple of teachers in a local school district who spend half a day in each of the two schools in their district. In the course of a week, each them sees each student twice a week. They were concerned that they not spread the virus between schools and, at the end of the day, to their family.

They bought several scrub suits, wear one to school in the morning, change into a second scrub suit to go to the second school and change into a third to come home.

I’m sure there are many such examples, I have only learned of this one.

Please, let’s show our teachers that we appreciate all their efforts.
