MULLICA HILL, N.J. - With spiking cases around the region, the teachers union for Clearview School District in Gloucester County is asking the district to go virtual.
The teachers union president is not mincing words.Paul Sommers sent a letter to the Gloucester County Health Department on Monday strongly urging a switch from hybrid to fully remote learning.
He says in light of 12 cases of coronavirus surfacing within the school community in a single week is an unsettling uptick."We wanna know why are we not closed when other schools are closing for far fewer cases in our area," he said.Sommers is also asking why Thanksgiving plans must be scrapped but in-person classes with as many as 40 students remain “okay” during this COVID.
