A
Call
this
meeting
of
the
charleston
county
legislative
delegation
to
order,
and
tonight
we
are
having
receiving
a
presentation
from
the
charleston
county
school
district
on
their
plans
for
reopening
the
schools
fall.
A
It's
always
beneficial
to
hear
the
public's
input,
although
some
of
us
may
think
we're
urgent,
we
are
not
and
we
we
always
benefit
from
receiving
input
from
the
public.
We
and
we
learn
things
that
we
never
thought
about,
and
I'm
sure
some
of
that
will
come
out
tonight
I
want
to.
A
I
also
want
to
thank
members
of
the
delegation
who
encouraged
me
to
have
this
meeting
and
particularly
representing
stavrinakis,
who
first
brought
it
to
my
attention
and
suggested
we
do
this
because
of
some
input
and
feedback
received
from
constituents
from
just
a
few
opening
comments
about
the
plan
or
what
a
plan
should
contain.
I
think
it's
very
important
that
everyone
acknowledge-
and
I
think
everyone
does
acknowledge-
we
may
have
some
disagreement
on
exactly
how
we
get
there,
but
the
education
of
our
children
is
the
most
important
function
and
issue
on
the
table
before
us.
A
A
A
Maybe
all
teachers
won't
have
that
option
and
that's
important,
but
it's
important
that
option
as
much
as
we
can
and
finally
I'd
like
to
say
this:
this
applies
not
just
in
this
instance,
but
with
regards
to
the
charleston
county
school
district
opening,
but
in
other
arenas
as
well.
I
think
it's
really
important
that
all
of
us
extend
to
each
other
a
measure
of
grace
when
it
comes
to
dealing
with
this
pandemic.
A
A
Everyone's
daily
life
is
dramatically
impacted
and-
and
we
never
dealt
with
before,
and
so
it's
very
important
that
we
collaborate,
that
we
listen,
that
we
work
cooperatively
and
and
and
that's
this
meeting,
and
I
appreciate
you
superintendent,
postwaite
of
being
here
and
presenting
to
us.
I
think
I
think
chairman
mack
would
like
to
make
a
few
comments
and
then
we'll
go
right
into
the
presentation
by
the
superintendent.
B
I
just
want
you
to
know
that
we,
on
behalf
of
the
board
of
trustees,
appreciate
your
support
for
ccsd
students,
teachers
and
leaders.
Dr
posterweight
and
her
leadership
team
have
talked
with
teachers,
parents,
community
members,
students
and
even
some
of
you
to
come
up
with
a
plan
that
is
in
the
best
interest
for
ccsd
students
and
teachers.
B
But
again
I
just
want
to
say
to
you
tonight
that
we
welcome
any
suggestions
that
you
may
have
after
tonight's
presentation
from
dr
posterweight
and
we're
looking
forward
to
working
along
with
you
and
aside
with
you
and
helping
to
present
and
produce
the
best
safe
plan
for
our
teachers,
for
our
staff
and
for
our
students
as
a
whole.
B
So
after
tonight's
meeting
we
please
ask
that
you
engage
with
us
the
delegation
as
a
whole
as
to
as
we
move
forward
in
making
sure
that
we
have
a
safe
start
and
a
safe
return
back
into
our
schools.
So,
having
said
that,
I
turn
it
now
over
to
dr
posterweight
to
to
make
her
presentation.
C
Thank
you,
hampson
reverend
mack
good
evening.
Everyone,
it's
a
pleasure
to
be
with
you
this
evening.
Maggie
dangerfield
is
going
to
put
some
slides
on
the
screen
so
that
we
can
review
this
lives
together.
C
We
have
approved
obtained
board
approval
for
on
first
reading
for
this
plan.
This
week
we
met
again
with
our
teacher
representatives
from
every
principles
we'll
meet
tomorrow.
With
our
task
force,
the
chamber
of
commerce
has
asked
for
a
presentation:
we've
taken
additional
feedback
from
parents
this
week.
C
We
may
make
some
modifications
before
monday,
but
it
seems
as
though
generally
we're
on
target
the
concerns
that
most
folks
had.
If
we
moved
to
the
first
slide,
we
simply
wanted
to
review
where
we've
been.
As
we
explained,
we
had
a
lot
of
input
from
a
broad-based
community
group.
As
we
started,
we
produced
our
plan.
We
published
it
in
first
in
draft
form.
Last
wednesday,
the
governor
gave
a
speech
asking
for
school
districts
to
try
to
offer
in-person
instruction
to
all
children.
C
As
you
see
from
this
small
picture
of
the
heat
map,
charleston
county's
covid
19
rates
at
this
current
time
are
too
high
for
us
to
consider
opening
schools,
certainly
on
any
large
scale
and
perhaps
on
any
scale
at
all.
The
bottom
line
is,
as
we
continue
to
work
on
this
plan.
We
will
do
so
in
consultation
with
medical
experts.
We
would
not
open
a
building
unless
our
medical
experts
say
that
the
logistics
that
we
place,
the
numbers
of
children
that
we're
thinking
about
serving
and
the
teachers
who
are
involved
are
willing
to
crack.
C
C
C
We're
encouraged
to
offer
five
days
a
week
where
we
can,
where
we
cannot,
we
can
offer
one
or
two
days
a
week,
three
days
a
week
four
days
a
week
as
we
get
started
back,
if
we're
not
able
to
start
in
person,
we
must
include
in
our
plan
a
time
how
often
we
will
consider
the
ability
to
reopen
in
person
and
for
charleston
county
schools
that
will
be
every
four
week
period.
C
C
Regardless
of
what
option
we
must
ensure
that
the
quality
of
our
instructional
delivery
is
improved
from
what
we
were
able
to
do
last
spring.
Our
teachers
did
a
heroic
job
of
serving
children
last
spring
and
making
sure
that
we
kept
track
of
every
single
and
the
final
analysis
out
of
50
000
students.
C
There
were
a
small
number
in
single
in
in
just
double
digits,
somewhere
between
30
and
45
students
who
may
have
moved
out
of
the
area
whose
names
we
gave
to
law
enforcement
to
try
to
help
us
locate.
So
our
teachers
did
an
incredible
job.
Nonetheless,
we've
had
a
few
months
to
get
ready
and
improved.
So
when
we
open,
if
we
open
in
virtual
mode,
we
must
have
a
high
quality
plan,
also
we're
required
to
meet
with
every
student
face
to
face
before
we
open
virtually
and
then.
C
Finally,
I
want
to
just
remind
everyone
that
the
legend
the
legislation
requires
us
to
offer
five
additional
days
for
kindergarten
through
the
eighth
grade.
That's
an
additional
five
days
on
top
of
the
regular
180
days.
Those
are
leap
days
for
learning,
evaluating,
analyzing
and
preparing
for
the
coming
school
year.
C
The
way
the
state
department
has
explained
those
additional
five
days
to
us.
If
teachers
are
comfortable
and
want
to
report
in
person
for
those
days,
then
they
will
be
paid
to
do
that.
If
they're
not
comfortable
and
don't
want
your
report,
that's
fine,
they
simply
won't
receive
the
pay
for
those
additional
days
that
are
outside
their
contract.
C
Parents
will
choose
virtual
or
in
person
even
if
they
choose
in
person,
we
may
not
be
able
to
offer
that
option.
We
hope
we
can
offer
for
at
least
a
few
students,
but
again
we'll
rely
on
medical
experts
for
that
we
will
contact
all
of
our
teachers
to
see
what
their
intents
and
preferences
are,
and
certainly
to
determine
those
whose
health
conditions
or
situations
at
home
that
would
make
it
particularly
treacherous
for
them
to
come
back
into
school
buildings
under
any
condition.
C
I've
already
mentioned
that
medical
experts
will
advise
us.
They
will
tell
us
whether
it's
possible
to
have
any
students
in
our
school
that
could
range
from
zero
percent
to
two
percent
of
the
students
to
a
hundred
percent.
So
again,
school
by
school
in
usc
is
working
with
us
in
their
back
to
business.
C
Play
before
schools,
they've
already
visited
a
few
of
our
sites
to
look
at
the
setup
and
in
the
final
analysis
they
and
our
d
heck
area
d,
heck
representatives,
who've
been
working
amazingly
with
us-
will
help
us
make
the
determinations
on
the
next
slide.
We
review
for
you
the
next
steps.
Some
people
wonder
why
we're
not
starting
virtually
sooner.
C
C
C
We
don't
know
at
this
point
whether
we
can
offer
any
in
person,
but,
as
I've
said
multiple
times
and
we'll
repeat
again,
we
will
only
start
in
if
we
have
clearance
to
do
that
from
medical
experts.
We
learned
that
horry
georgetown,
dorchester,
college
and
beaufort
counties
are
also
recommending
and
some
have
approved
a
september
8th
start
date.
C
They've
done
a
projection
from
where
our
students
were
when
school
closed.
The
upward
line
on
the
top
the
purple
part
of
the
graph
shows
sixth
graders
in
reading,
and
if
they
were
at
the
75th
percentile
chances
are
between
march
and
the
end
of
school.
Their
achievement
actually
increased
a
little,
but
for
those
students
who
were
the
25th
we're
in
the
bottom
quarter,
who
are
most
in
need
of
the
help
they
get
in
public
schools,
their
achievement
very
likely
declined.
C
The
same
thing
is
true
with
fourth
grade.
That's
what
you
see
in
the
in
the
graph
below
that
and
what
we
have
out
here
at
the
end
of
that
chart
that
looks
like
a
megaphone
is
the
demonstration
that
the
challenges
for
teachers
will
be
even
more
complex
than
they
ever
have
been
ever
before,
because
of
the
exacerbated
gaps
that
have
occurred
in
mathematics
and
reading.
C
As
some
students
have
continued
to
achieve,
and
others
simply
weren't
able
to
get
the
amount
of
support
they
needed
virtually
or
weren't
able
to
connect,
and
in
some
instances
I
told
us,
students
came
from
households
that
didn't
have
electricity.
C
So
those
are
the
kinds
of
things
multitude
of
things.
Thinking
about
in
this
massively
complex
undertaking
that
we
are
giving
the
weight
of
our
ability
to
communicate
with
the
community
and
to
listen
respectively,
respectfully
and
responsibly
as
we
make
the
best
vision
for
for
charleston
county
children.
Their
families
in
the
community,
jeff
vareley
will
talk
just
a
little
bit
about
the
operational
issues
that
we
are
thinking
about
in
order
to
ensure
safety.
Mr
pirelli.
D
Hey
dr
postway
good
evening
delegation,
I've
got
one
slide
here.
I
could
have
probably
put
12
slides
in,
but
in
the
interest
of
time
I'm
really
hitting
the
wave
tops
on
all
of
the
the
things
that
are
being
done.
I
had
a
plan
for
a
school
opening
for
the
safety
and
health
of
our
students
and
faculty.
D
First
off
from
a
clean
disinfection
point
of
view,
a
number
of
things
have
been
increased
or
we're
planning
to
increase,
the
first
of
which
is
disinfection
of
all
bathrooms
and
common
touch,
surfaces,
doorknobs,
handrails,
push
bars,
etc,
etc,
twice
per
day
right
now
we
do
it
once
per
day
we're
paying
to
have
that
done
twice
per
day.
Fogging.
D
Once
per
week,
we
have
some
incredible
misting
capability
equipment,
we're
going
to
ensure
that
we
have
one
of
those
misters
in
each
and
every
school,
along
with
the
hydrogen
peroxide
solution,
that's
used
to
basically
fog
a
school.
We're
going
to
do
that
once
a
week
roughly
20
a
night
for
each
school
we'll
be
disinfecting
the
buses,
a
double
the
amount
as
well
we'll
be
treating
those
buses
during
the
midday
period
between
the
morning
and
the
afternoon
runs,
and
after
the
last
run
from
a
facility
improvement
perspective.
D
There's
been
a
lot
of
media
coverage
on
our
on
our
desk
dividers.
Our
facilities
crew
has
really
had
a
herculean
task
and
project
ahead
of
them
and
are
well
underway
to
creating
an
environment
where
we've
got
kids
at
their
desks,
where
they
don't
have
direct
interface,
but
can
see
the
students
in
front
and
around
them
we're
going
to
be
finishing
up
or
we've
started.
The
elementary
schools
we're
working
our
way
through
the
the
lower
schools.
D
First,
working
up
to
middle
and
high
schools,
not
every
classroom
will
need
a
divider
if
we
can
get
social
distancing
without
it.
We'll
certainly
look
at
that,
but
we
want
to
create
an
environment
when
our
kids
come
back,
that
we've
got
that
spacing
available
bottle.
Fillers
we're
going
to
be
transitioning
from
the
water
fountains
to
fillers.
Most
of
our
schools
already
have
them.
We
will
install
them
in
the
remainder
of
the
schools
and
have
water
bottles
for
each
employee
and
child
and
we'll
turn
the
water
fountains
off
in
our
schools.
D
Air
conditioning
the
I
will
tell
you
that
this
is
a
a
common
concern
that
I
get
from
teachers
and
parents
on
what
we're
doing
with
hvac.
Our
systems
are
pretty
incredible
and
we've
made
them
even
better
through
the
summer
and
ready
for
the
start
of
the
school
year.
We've
analyzed
each
and
every
unit.
Normally
we
only
take
a
close
look
at
about
20
percent
each
summer,
but
we've
looked
at
all
of
our
systems
very
closely.
D
We've
identified
the
upgrades
of
filters
taking
it
up
to
the
highest
possible
level
level
that
the
manufacturer
recommended
the
manufacturer
recommends
so
that
we
filter
out
as
much
of
viruses
and
other
substances
as
possible
and
making
sure
that
all
of
our
fresh
air
equipment,
which
cycles
air
in
and
out
of
the
building,
I
like
to
challenge
our
teachers
to
say
I
bet
none
of
you
have
a
home
with
fresh
air
equipment,
because
I
know
I
don't
and
we
do
have
it
in
our
schools
and
that
cycles.
D
The
air
in
and
out
of
the
school
we're
going
to
start
those
systems
early
in
the
morning
and
run
them
later
in
the
afternoon
than
we
normally
do
and
that's
monitored
with
co2.
So
as
the
co2
levels,
if
they
stay
steady,
we
know
that
air
is
going
in
out
of
the
schools
portable
hepa
units.
This
provides
additional
filtration
in
our
nurses,
clinics.
Those
are
on
board
right
now,
one
in
every
clinic.
D
Moving
on
to
buses,
as
dr
posterweight
said,
50
capacity
is
our
limitation.
We
really
appreciate
the
fact
that
that
number
came
out
early
to
allow
us
to
begin
to
analyze
what
we
have.
But
we've
talked
to
all
of
our
principals.
We've
looked
at
our
data
from
last
year
and
we're
very
close
to
having
routing
options,
to
display
and
present
to
our
leadership
that
would
hopefully
maximize
and
offer
transportation
to
any
child
that
that
wants
to
wants
to
come
back
via
bus
from
a
food
service
perspective.
D
We
will
serve
hot
lunches
every
day.
We're
hoping
to
have
breakfast
and
lunch
pick
up
in
the
cafeterias
and
and
children
will
take
their
food
back
to
their
cafeteria.
If
there's
not
a
space
available,
either
within
the
cafeteria
or
outdoors
to
to
eat,
that
is
a
process,
that's
well
underway
and
ready
to
go,
and
we
would
still
provide
a
virtual
school
pickup
to
those
students
that
deserve
and
have
warrants
a
free
or
reduced
meal.
D
We're
going
to
work,
work
that
out
so
if
the
kids
aren't
in
school,
we'll
have
capacity
to
be
able
to
do
that.
Lastly,
I
just
wanted
to
touch
on
our
covet
protocol
again.
One
of
the
common
questions
I
get
is:
what
happens
if
somebody's
positive
well,
our
our
routine,
is
in
place.
Our
protocol
is
in
place
back
in
march
and
april
when
we
were
out
of
school.
Our
nurses
supported
dhec
in
contact
tracing
that
gave
us
a
really
good.
D
It
gave
us
some
really
good
experience
and
be
able
to
do
it
on
our
own,
and
we
turn
that
around
within
the
day.
So,
if
we
find
out
somebody's
positive,
we
investigate
who
needs
to
be
quarantined
with
that
individual
and
are
able
to
inform
those
people
right
away
and
concurrently.
We
take
a
look
at
the
cleaning
necessary
in
the
spaces
that
the
covid
positive
individual
was
it's
a
process
that
I
have
a
lot
of
confidence
in
has
been
working
very
effectively.
D
Since
we
got
back
into
schools
here
to
work,
we
will
refine
those
school
notifications
for
when
we
go
back
to
school.
One
of
the
common
parent
questions
is:
how
will
we
find
out
we'll
make
sure
that
we
we
protect
personnel's
personnel
privacy
with
the
the
making
sure
we
don't
release
data
that
we're
not
supposed
to
release,
but
let
folks
know
what
we're
doing
in
our
schools
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
it
over
to
our
ceo,
our
chief
academic
officer,
carolyn
belcher,
for
the
next
slide.
E
Hi,
it's
nice
to
meet
all
of
you,
I'm
sorry
that
I
haven't
had
a
chance
to
meet
you
in
person.
I
just
joined
the
charleston
county
school
district
in
january
and
it's
been
an
unusual
transition,
as
I'm
sure
you
can
imagine
this
fall.
Parents
are
gonna,
have
several
options
around
the
instructional
programming.
Specifically,
if
we're
able
to
open
safely
in
person,
we
have
analyzed
every
school
and
are
in
the
process
of
completing
that
analysis.
So
this
summer
we
engaged
all
the
principals
in
a
question
around.
E
How
should
we
reopen
like
every
school
district
across
the
country?
The
question
was:
what
should
our
schedule
be?
How
do
we
accommodate
students
and
very
quickly
our
principals
came
back
to
us
and
said
we
want
to
serve
as
many
students
as
we
possibly
can
safely.
So
that
has
been
our
orientation
throughout
this
entire
process
of
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
do
that.
E
For
that
reason,
principals
looked
at
their
building
and
tried
to
figure
out
the
capacity
to
allow
kids
to
come
back
in
person
with
social
distancing
with
some
of
the
safety
protocols
that
jeff
just
outlined
in
terms
of
plexiglass
barriers,
and
we
think
that
close
to
50
of
our
schools
again
assuming
the
virus
level
goes
down
to
a
point
where
we
can't
open.
They
could
bring
back
students
safely
so,
given
that
parents
will
have
a
choice
of
five
days
a
week
of
in-person
instruction
or
virtual
academy,
which
would
be
a
fully
online
model.
E
Alternatively,
some
of
our
schools
are
right
at
capacity,
so
it
will
be
very,
very
difficult
to
have
large
numbers
of
students
in
the
building
and
still
maintain
those
safety
procedures.
For
that
reason,
we
will
go
to
an
alternating
schedule.
Now,
we've
selected
in
charleston
county
the
aabb
option
and
I'll
talk
about
that
in
just
a
minute.
E
The
idea
here
is
that
we,
because
we
can't
fit
every
single
student
in
the
building,
we
will
also
have
a
group
of
students
that
are
able
to
go
to
school
five
days
a
week.
So,
as
we
think
about
this,
the
aaa
model
looks
like
this:
a
student
would
go
to
school
on
a
monday
and
tuesday
on
wednesday,
at
least
for
the
first
four
weeks.
E
The
reason
why
we
chose
the
double
day
option
is
that
we
have
to
take
time
every
day,
instructionally
to
set
students
up
for
at
home
learning.
So
at
the
end
of
every
tuesday,
the
teachers
will
have
to
have
students
download
the
material
for
the
week,
give
them
written
work,
if
that's
the
form,
and
so
that
takes
time
every
instructional
day.
So,
by
going
an
aabb
model,
we
can
do
it
just
once
so
be
tuesday
afternoon.
Obviously,
on
the
aa
group
or
friday
afternoon
on
the
bb.
E
Also
there
was
a
slight
preference,
and
by
that
I
really
do
mean
slightly.
We
went
through
a
week
alternating
and
day
alternating,
but
a
slight
preference
on
parents
that
it's
a
bit
easier
to
allow
us
to
have
child
care.
If
we
can
say
we
need
child
care
monday
and
tuesday
or
we
need
child
care
monday
to
wednesday.
So
that
was
the
intent
behind
that,
and
I
I
think
I
I
would
say
finally
now.
E
If
we
are
not
able
to
open
it
safely
temporarily,
I
would
I
want
my
child
to
be
in
remote
instruction.
We
know
that
many
families
want
their
child's
teacher
to
be
working
with
their
child
remotely,
and
so
we
want
to
make
sure
if
we
have
to
open
fully
remotely.
We
have
that
as
an
option.
I
want
to
assure
families
that
it's
going
to
be
very
different
than
what
we
did
in
the
spring.
E
As
dr
poserway
highlighted
the
spring,
we
I'm
proud
of
what
we
did,
but
knowing
that
we
have
to
teach
new
content
that
we've
lost
a
quarter's
worth
of
instruction.
We
have
to
accelerate
to
have
more
than
a
year's
worth
of
instruction
in
one
in
period
of
time.
Every
second
counts,
so
we
are
going
to
have
a
much
more
structured
day
where
there's
a
scheduled
time
where
teachers
are
doing
what
we're
doing
and
teaching
in
a
video
conferencing
format
followed
by
opportunities
for
independent
work
and
then
the
math
class,
and
then
the
social
studies
class.
E
E
F
So
great
evening,
everyone,
my
name,
is
joe
williams,
and
I
am
the
associate
for
secondary
schools
here
in
ccsd.
So
great
seeing
you
all
this
evening
and
I
hope
your
families
are
well.
What
I
like
to
do.
Is
I
like
to
briefly
present
to
you
all
what
our
virtual
academy
and
ccsd
will
entail.
So
I'd
like
to
start
off
by
stating
that
our
ccsd
virtual
academy
is
dramatically
different
again,
like
carolyn
said
from
the
opportunities
we
offered
when
we
had
to
shut
down
schools
in
march.
F
So
we
wanted
to
clarify
this,
because
many
parents
feel
as
though
this
will
be
the
same
experience
for
their
children
if
they
sign
up
for
the
virtual
offering
this
fall
now.
What
we've
done
is
we've
built
a
solid
virtual
academy
to
support
the
learning
of
scholars
for
families
that
prefer
this
option
and
how
we've
done
that
is
through
research.
We
have
developed
a
quality
curriculum
by
using
resources
from
proven
providers
to
include
sc
virtual
florida,
virtual
and
ingenuity.
F
We
are
also
looking
to
secure
a
program
that
allows
for
better
support
of
scholars
and
teachers
that
take
part
in
the
virtual
learning
experience
and
that's
called
a
learning
management
system.
And,
of
course,
when
we
get
this
system,
teachers
will
be
trained
on
how
to
use
it
effectively.
F
Our
families
may
feel
comfortable
with
sending
their
scholars
back,
but
we
are
asking
that
they
commit
for
one
semester
if
they're
a
high
school
scholar
and
one
quarter
for
middle
school
scholars
unless
they're
taking
a
high
school
course
and
that
one
quarter
would
apply
to
our
elementary
scholars
as
well
and
finally,
for
clarity
purposes.
I
wanted
to
let
you
all
know
that
our
ccsd
virtual
academy
will
have
teachers
that
are
solely
utilized
for
that
purpose.
Teaching
scholars
enrolled
in
the
virtual
academy.
F
So,
thank
you
all
and
at
this
time
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
michelle
simmons.
A
G
G
H
C
To
finish
our
presentation
by
6
40,
and
so
we
will,
I
think
we
started
a
tiny
bit
late,
but
we
will,
we
will
do
our.
We
will
cut
it
off
at
16.
I
I
I
Our
early
childhood
population
consists
of
our
three
and
four-year-olds
our
littlest
learners,
and
so
we
do
intend
on
starting
instruction
for
them
approximately
one
week
after
our
k-12
students
begin.
Our
intention
would
be
to
enter
those
boys
and
girls
on
a
staggered
schedule
so
that
they
can
adjust
to
the
overall
school
experience
and
school
expectations.
I
We
are
expecting
teachers
and
service
providers
to
continue
to
provide
specially
designed
instruction
to
meet
the
needs
of
our
boys
and
girls,
and
when
families
decide
that
they
want
a
non-traditional
model
or
schedule,
we
will
be
ensuring
that
families
are
supporting
school
teams
working
side
by
side
to
decide
on
impact
and
what
would
be
in
the
best
interest
of
each
student.
And
I'm
going
to
toss
it
to
mr
bregman
to
talk
about
teachers
and
leave.
J
Hi
this
is
natalie
hamm.
I
am
general
counsel
for
the
district.
Actually,
mr
brookman
and
I
worked
on
this
information
together.
You
guys
know
the
family's
first
coronavirus
response
act
was
recently
passed
and
under
that
there
were
qualifying
reasons
for
which
an
employee
could
gain
emergency
paid
leave
for
for
time
off
for
covet
19
related
reasons.
J
If
you
look
at
the
left
side
of
the
screen
in
the
orange
box,
those
are
actually
lists
the
reasons
that
you
could
qualify
for
the
leave
and
those
are
you
know,
quarantined
or
caring
for
an
individual
or
child
care,
and
there
are
a
couple
of
other
reasons
listed,
but
it's
very
specific.
We've
actually
implemented
the
regulations
under
the
act
into
our
board.
Policies
which
you
can
policies
are
listed
at
the
top
of
the
screen
and
bill
can
explain
to
you
what
the
process
for
requesting
that
leave
will
look
like.
K
C
L
Thank
you
ma'am.
Yes,
I
can
do
that
good
evening
delegation,
I'm
don
kennedy,
the
cfo
for
the
school
district,
so
everything
you've
heard
so
far
from
the
operations
side.
Regarding
the
safety
protocols
and
measures.
Excuse
me
the
additional
supports
associated
with
the
academic
side
of
the
house.
Those
come
with
additional
costs.
We
do
expect
substantial
increase
in
our
costs
because
of
cobit
19..
L
Some
of
those
costs,
on
the
left
hand
side
the
4.3
million
dollars-
are
those
costs
to
get
schools
open
safely
in
september
for
in
person.
If
that's
that's
the
case,
but
it
does
not
represent
all
of
the
costs
for
the
entire
fiscal
year
to
maintain
those
safety
measures
on
the
right-hand
side
of
the
5.5,
some
of
the
academic
expenditures
that
we
anticipate
for
this
year
and
again,
a
lot
of
those
costs
are
only
for
for
opening
up
and
we
do
expect
additional
expenditures
throughout
the
year.
L
Next,
next
and
last
slide,
please,
as
you're
aware
that
we
will
be
getting
our
cares.
Funding
from
the
federal
government,
the
numbers
on
the
left
show
that
ccsd
will
receive
13.4
million,
we'll
be
able
to
allocate
12.8
million
once
we
take
the
indirect
costs.
Out
of
that,
we
will
allocate
that
based
on
the
basis
of
student
enrollment,
and
you
can
see
the
enrollment
numbers
here.
We
have
an
estimate
for
the
private
school,
the
ones
that
are
going
to
participate.
L
We
finalized
those
numbers
late
this
afternoon,
so
that
number
is
actually
3200
in
private
school
enrollment
and
so
each
student,
then
in
charleston
county,
will
receive
the
256
of
roughly
that
amount
per
per
pupil
on
the
cares
funding
and,
on
the
right
hand,
side.
It
shows
how
some
of
those
costs
will
be
those
that
funding
would
be
allocated
virtual
school
1.6
million
the
safety
measures
that
mr
roy
talked
about.
L
The
4.3
additional
academic
supports
4.9
the
charts
throughout
charter
school
application
allocation
will
be
1.1
million
in
the
private
school.
Schools
that
are
opted
to
participate
will
receive
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
then
the
last
point
at
the
very
bottom
here
in
the
left-hand
corner.
We
have
a
process
that
we
have
to
go
through.
They
put
in
a
grant
application
to
the
state
to
receive
the
13.4
million
dollars
and
with
that
I'll
turn
it
back
over
to
you,
dr
posterweight.
M
Thank
you
and
delegates
and
chair
camps
and
their
questions
that
you
have
any
any
questions
that
your
constituents
have.
They
can
reach
out
to
us
at
safestart
charleston.k12.sc.us,
as
we
continue
to
get
their
input
on
our
plan.
Thank
you
so
much
for
listening
and
we
will
turn
it
back
over
to
you
now.
A
N
Hi
thanks
everyone
for
coming
to
the
meeting.
I
had
a
few
questions.
One
of
the
questions
I
had
is:
what
type
of
ppe
do
you
plan
on
providing
the
teachers
with
mr.
D
The
teachers
will
be
provided
with
cloth,
masks
for
use
and
in
the
in
the
highly
specialized
area,
where
there's
detailed
interaction
with
students
or
in
the
nurses
clinic.
There
would
be
face
shields
and
gloves
if
necessary,.
D
D
If
they
got
into
their
spaces
in
the
classroom
and
had
adequate
social
distancing,
we
would
allow
them
to
take
the
mass
off
that
that
is
a
what
we're
looking
at
right
now,
but
that's
subject
to
change
based
on
recommendations
from
medical
professionals.
N
Okay,
I
just
had
a
couple
more
quick
questions.
I
know
everybody
has
questions.
I
saw
in
the
funding
there's
funding
for
a
vaccination
nurse
for
vfc
program.
Can
you
tell
me
what
vfc,
what
does
that
stand
for.
D
D
You
have
to
have
a
qualified
nurse
running
the
program
and
what
we
have
found
because
of
the
covet
919
pandemic
is
that
children
are
not
being
vaccinated
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
when
they
come
back
to
school,
we
have
the
ability
to
give
them
those
vaccinations.
We
have
set
up
at
least
one
event
with
our
medical
professionals
to
offer
vaccinations.
D
N
Okay
and
the
last
question
I
had
was
when
she
mentioned
the
levels
to
be
safe
for
return
if
they
were,
if
the
levels
were
safe,
I
I
need
to
know
what
are
the
parameters
for
that?
What
are
what
are
we?
What
are
we
talking
about
specifically
when
we
talk
about
safe
start
levels,.
C
The
dehec
metrics
would
say
that
our
daily
infection
rate
needs
to
be
much
lower
than
it
is
now.
It
needs
to
be
about
50
lower
than
it
is
currently,
and
we
need
to
see
a
pattern
of
decreasing
infections
over
two
weeks
which
we
have
not
seen
consistently.
So
there
are
three
different
criteria
in
there
on
the
dhec
webpage.
We
can
send
those
to
you.
Thank
you.
A
O
All
right,
thank
you,
mr
chairman
and
representative
kim,
and
thank
you
for
the
question
on
the
threshold,
because
I
had
a
question
on
that
as
well,
and
then
what
are
the
services
available?
How
are
we
going
to
handle?
You
know
those
students
who
are
most
in
need
either
their
tradition,
nutritional
needs,
mental
health
needs
like
counseling,
or
maybe
those
that
can't
do
the
virtual
option
because
they
don't
have
internet
or
maybe
maybe
they
don't
have
someone
at
home,
because
you
know
their
parent
might
be
working.
O
C
O
A
P
You,
okay,
thank
you!
So
much
it's
it's
it's!
I
want
to
commend
the
chinese
school
district
for
all
you're
doing,
but
my
question
is
basically
the
same
question
as
so
many
other
folks
when
governor
paul
in
new
york,
he
painted
a
very
good
picture
and-
and
it's
one
of
the
things
I
think's
been
lacking
with
a
lot
of
politicians
around
the
country
he
talked
about
and
he
got
the
information
from
medical
experts
flattening
the
curve
flattening
the
curve.
P
So
everyone
was
able
to
look
make
a
determination
to
see
when
it
was
safe,
and
I
I
know
that
you'll
be
getting
information
from
that
question,
but
has
about
the
aspect
of
quote-unquote
flattening
the
curve,
because
the
numbers
are
continuing
to
explode
spike
and
a
lot
of
us
I
mean
all
of
us
is
concerned
as
much
as
we
all
want
our
children
to
be
back
in
school.
We
want
them
to
be
back
in
school
safely,
not
to
mention
our
school
teachers
and
and
our
staff.
P
So
I'm
very
concerned:
it's
not
like
going
through
the
grocery
store
and
you're
in
and
out
and
you're,
using
the
basket
to
socially
distance,
and
you
have
a
map
you'll
be
sitting
there
for
several
hours
per
day.
So
the
bottom
line
question
is:
has
there
been
any
discussion
about
numbers
about
flattening
the
curve
about
where
those
numbers
need
to
be,
as
opposed
to?
Oh,
we
have
about
a
week
and
a
half
that
looks
pretty
good.
We're
going
to
open
up
is
that
discussion
been
held
in
detail.
C
C
We
have
a
couple
of
private
citizens
who
are
really
engaged
in
analytics
in
neuroscience
and
in
another
field
who
are
willing
to
help,
but
as
of
this
date,
they
have
not
yet
had
time
to
produce
what
they
think
would
be
something
that
our
board
might
want
to
consider
to
use
locally.
So,
for
the
time
being,
we
are
using
the
3-d
criteria
that
were
established
about
a
month
ago.
P
One
other
very
quick
question,
as
relates
to
coordinating
services
with
other
entities
that
work
with
children.
It
has
has
been
someone
on
staff.
That's
been
able
to
kind
of
reach
out
to
some
of
these
entities
that
work
working,
neighborhoods
that
work
with
children
and
forming
some
partnerships
in
these
critical
times.
C
Q
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
I
want
to
thank
ccsd
for
helping
put
this
together
and
all
the
work
they've
put
in
to
their
plans
and
try
and
help
us
and
the
public
understand
what
it's
a
very
difficult
situation
for
everybody.
I
can't
imagine
doctor
posed
away
you
and
your
staff
what
you've
gone
through
since
march.
I
know
communications
I've
had
with
some
of
your
teachers
over
that
time.
Q
First
on
the
face-to-face
meeting,
that's
required!
When
do
you
estimate
those
will
happen
and
how
will
they
occur?
Obviously,
a
lot
of
people
are
concerned
about
being
in
groups
of
people.
So
how
logistically
will
that
take
place.
C
They
would
have
to
be
scheduled
over
five
days
if
you
take
the
total
number
of
students
in
a
school
that
by
five
days
and
then
divide
each
day
into
portions,
maybe
four
different
sessions
per
day
with
as
a
dozen
parents
and
students
arriving
different
time
during
a
two
hour
period
throughout
the
school,
seeing
multiple
teachers
they
would
all
have
to
come
in
with
the
masks
on
and
go
through.
The
health
screen
come
in
the
building,
get
the
essentials
and
then
leave
before
another
group,
and
so
it
is
a
logistical
challenge.
C
But
our
thought
is
at
least
for
k-8
to
spread
it
over
that
week
of
the
days
that
the
legislature
so
thoughtfully
and
insightfully
provided
for
just
that
not
solved
how
to
do
that
for
our
high
school
teachers,
so
whether
that
would
be
done
the
week
before
school
starts
or
we
would
actually
use
that
first
week
of
school
for
high
school
teachers
is
a
matter
that's
still
under
discussion,
but
it
would
be
in
very
small
groups,
those
parents
who
do
not
feel
comfortable
with
that.
I'm
sure
could
set
up
a
zoom
type
meeting.
C
Q
So
I
know
y'all
are
saying
you
put
you're
planning
to
start
on
the
8th
and
assuming
you
did
of
september.
When
do
we
assuming
everything
went
to
plan?
When
would
we
finish
school.
B
So,
representative
sabanacas,
I
believe,
the
end
of
june.
I
don't
know
the
exact
date,
but
it's
near
the
end
of
june
and
when.
If
we
start
on
september,
8th
is
when
the
completion
will
be
okay,.
S
F
The
leaf
days
would
be
at
the
beginning
of
the
year.
This
is
dr
williams.
You
are
correct
in
saying
that
I
think
it
was
miss,
miss
darby
and
also
it
would
be
for
our
k-8.
Only.
Q
Okay
and
let
me
try
to
get
through
a
couple
more
quickly,
I
don't
want
to
monopolize
too
much
time
how
are
y'all
playing
if
you,
if
you
have
students
in
school
and
someone
test
positive
teacher
or
student,
what
are
the
plans
for
how
to
handle
that.
D
Reverse
tabernacles:
this
is
jeff
brewery.
The
chief
operating
officer,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
we've
got
a
full
nursing
staff
in
place
that
has
been
doing
just
that.
So
far,
we've
had
we've
had
teachers
test
positive
they've
been
in
schools.
Obviously,
with
a
small
population
of
schools,
it's
been
it's
been
easier,
but
the
minute
we're
notified
that
there's
a
positive
case.
D
It
is
assigned
to
a
nurse
who
investigates
with
the
family
the
exact
contact
that
that
student
has
had
with
with
their
surroundings.
The
general
rule
of
thumb
that
that
dhec
uses
now
is
if
you've
had
contact
for
more
than
15
minutes
and
within
six
foot
of
an
individual
you're
you're
on
the
list
to
be
quarantined.
D
Yes,
it
is,
it
is
possible
and
that's
and
that's
the
way.
It
is
right
now
with
everyone
else.
It
all
depends
upon
the
contact
that
that
child
has
had
with
other
other
children,
so
it
doesn't
necessarily
mean
the
entire
class
is
shut
down
it
they'll,
the
teacher
will
be
interviewed,
kids
will
be
interviewed
with
their
parents
and
what
kind
of
contact
they
had
with
the
student
that
was
positive
would
determine
which
students
are
quarantined.
Q
Q
You
keep
bringing
kids
back
into
a
classroom
where
you
know,
there's
been
a
positive
person,
that's
an
enormous
risk,
but
I
mean
you
know:
you've
got
to
follow
the
health
guidelines.
I
didn't
know
what
they
were
and
that's
the
reason
I
asked
the
question.
Q
Someone
mentioned
iep
and
504
plans
if
it's
a
student's
in
a
virtual
program
virtual
only.
How
is
that
going
to
be
handled
in
terms
of
getting
them,
the
accommodations
that
and
assistance
that
they
normally
receive.
B
Yes,
sir,
miss
belcher,
yes,
go
ahead,.
E
Sorry
about
that,
so
the
the
key
thing
in
the
iep
504
plan
is
to
make
sure
that
we
are
meeting
the
goals
that
are
set
within
that
plan
that
are
unique
to
that
child.
E
I
think
the
the
thing
I
would
have
stressed
to
families
is:
these
are
unprecedent
precedented
times
some
services,
such
obviously
as
physical
therapy
or
students
with
extreme
special
needs,
where
they
need
teachers
to
actually
pick
them
up
and
move
move
students
around
and
give
them
extra
support,
and
that
way
and
get
really
close
to
kids.
We're
going
to
have
to
adjust
our
practices
and
have
much
more
safety
equipment
in
place
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
it
well.
Q
Q
So
I
I'm
looking
you
know.
First
of
all,
I
find
that
disappointing.
I
think
it's
risky
and
difficult
for
a
lot
of
kids
to
be
separated
from
their
normal
support
group
at
school,
the
administrators
and
teachers
that
know
these
children
well
and
it's
also
difficult
for
them
to
be
separated
from
their
support
system
in
school
amongst
their
classmates.
So
I
have
shared
those
concerns.
I
continue
to
have
those
concerns.
Q
I
would
much
rather
see
some
kind
of
virtual
option
that
involve
kids
having
teachers
from
their
normal
school
if
at
all
possible.
Q
But
that
aside,
I
look
at
the
situation
with
covid
right
now
and
the
actions
that
our
government
is
taking
are
not
taking,
and
I
don't
see
much
hope
that
these
numbers
are
going
to
go
down
where
they
need
to
be
for
you
to
have
schools
open
just
my
personal
opinion,
normally
to
get
those
numbers
down,
you
got
to
take
some
pretty
dramatic
action
as
a
government
to
make
that
happen.
Q
I
don't
see
those
things
happening
right
now
and
if
they
don't
happen
soon,
the
thought
that
the
numbers
are
going
to
go
down
far
enough
by
early
september
to
me
just
doesn't
seem
realistic.
Hopefully
I'm
wrong
about
that.
But
that's
what
I
see
knowing
that,
knowing
that
kids
will
not
be
taught
by
their
teachers
if
they
select
virtual
only
what
incentive
do
they
have
for
selecting
that
if
schools
are
likely
not
going
to
be
open
anyway?
What
are
you
going
to
do
with
all
of
these
students
if
you
can't
open
in
september?
Q
B
So
miss
belcher.
Please
confirm
that
we
have
adopted
the
national
model,
but
those
if
we
go
virtual,
that
our
teachers
with
inside
our
buildings
will
be
teaching
virtually
correct.
E
That's
correct
the.
If
we
have
to
open,
I
mean
the
teachers
have,
as
I'm
sure
you
understand,
sir,
a
mighty
task,
because
we're
essentially
planning
for
the
possibility
of
opening
fully
virtual
if
the
virus
levels
don't
go
down,
as
you
just
said,
and
and
let's
all
work
together
to
make
sure
we
do
our
part
to
bring
them
down.
Obviously,
and
then,
if
not
we're
gonna,
they
have
to
prepare
for
a
hybrid
model
where
they
may
have
multiple
groups
of
students
that
they're
teaching
and
students
who
are
working
at
home
when
they're,
not
physically
in
person.
Q
E
If
we've
sent
when
we
put
up
the
survey,
our
intent
is
to
try
to
make
explicit-
and
we
haven't
quite
we're
working
on
that
right
now
that
if
we
have
to
open
fully
virtually,
that
is
their
preference,
that
they
have
their
home
school
teacher.
And
then
the
virtual
academy
is
a
separate
distinction.
E
B
Yeah,
I
believe
chairman
campson
is
back
on
to
give
direction
as
to
who
who's
next
question-wise.
A
A
G
Yeah,
first
of
all,
thank
you
because
I
do
have
to
leave.
I
have
another
engagement,
but
nevertheless
I
have
a
couple
of
questions
of
concerns.
G
G
We
have
situations
where
we
now
know
that
they
had
to
change
their
position
as
far
as
schooling,
businesses,
opening
you
know,
we
have
the
teachers
and
who
better
else
to
tell
us
on
how
to
handle
this
whole
situation,
but
we
have
the
medical
experts.
We
have
the
teachers
telling
us
don't
for
the
most
part,
don't
do
it.
This
is
the
perfect
stone,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
and
for
the
love
of
god.
I
don't
know.
G
Why
would
we
want
to
put
our
children,
our
children
out
there
like
that
and
and
have
to
endanger
the
teachers
and
the
parents,
because
I
don't
know
about
you,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
but
in
my
district
I
go
to
my
schools,
because
I
have
a
lot
of
schools
in
my
district
and
I
look.
The
first
thing
that
hit
my
mind
is
the
fact
that,
and
I'm
quite
sure,
it's
supposed
to
wait.
I
sent
you
a
letter.
G
I
think
it's
about
two
and
a
half
three
months
ago
asking
to
have
a
zoom
meeting,
but
nevertheless
you
never
answered
me.
So
we
should
have
already
had
about
three
zoom
meetings,
thus
far
as
far
as
I'm
concerned,
but
nevertheless,
what
we
have
in
the
communities,
the
children
for
the
most
part
they
stay
with
their
grandparents
and
these
people.
G
You
know
these
are
all
the
people.
These
are
our
elders.
For
the
most
part,
these
kids
don't
stay
with
their
parents.
Okay,
so
here
we
are
with
the
perfect
storm.
What's
going
to
happen,
when
we
have
a
backlash,
I
don't
see
a
plan
b.
You
know,
I,
I
see
all
this
information
we
have
about
this
program
that
you
guys
got,
but
this
this
plan
has
not
been
tested
has
not
been
tried,
and
I
I
I
don't
know:
if
is
this
plan
working
anywhere
else,
or
this
is
something
we
created
in-house?
G
Okay
and
you
know
we
talk
about
the
teachers
and
the
parents.
This
thing
that
y'all
have
about
signing
disclaimers
is
that
still
on
the
table,
miss
poster
wait.
I,
if
I'm
a
parent,
I
have
to
sign
a
disclaimer
before
I
bring
my
child
to
school.
G
Glad
to
hear
that,
okay,
because
that's
that's
a
warning,
sign
unto
itself
and
it
scared
a
lot
of
people
off
okay,
but
never
nevertheless,
do
we
have
anything
on
the
table
that
would
give
the
teachers
hazardous
pay
to
work
in
this
environment
because
we're
still
under,
I
would
think
a
state
of
emergency.
But
I
don't
see-
and
I
I
did
not
read
that
in
the
cares
act-
and
you
know
you-
you
can
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
somebody
we
should
have
directed
monies
for
that
purposes
and
I'm
talking
about
the
lawmakers
here.
G
Okay,
so
don't
don't
get
me
wrong,
but
when
you
and
I
want
to
talk
about
the
buildings
in
my
district,
how
are
we
going
to
protect
the
students,
the
children,
the
staff
from
distancing
when
you
look
at
some
of
the
the
way
the
buildings
are
structured,
whether
it's
the
classroom,
the
hallways,
the
cafeterias?
G
It's
just
no
way
impossible.
Now,
if
you
did-
and
I
saw
when
you
deleted
some
numbers,
but
even
with
the
numbers
that
that
I
saw
in
the
way-
and
I
and
I
could
use
pinkney
elementary
for
case
in
point-
you
know
anywhere
you
go
in
that
building.
G
You
cannot
safely
separate
the
children,
I'm
not
I'm
just
I'm
a
real.
You
know
I'm
just
being
real
with
everybody
and
that's
just
one
structure
that
we
have.
Okay.
So
my
point
is,
you
know
we
have
everything,
that's
working
against
us
and
I
think
the
smart
thing
would
to
do.
I
think
I
heard
representative
mack
gave
governor
cuomo
his
quotas.
G
G
I
I
see
this
plan,
it
looked
like
a
big
experimental
type
plan
and
just
like
when
I
wrote
the
governor
with
all
due
respect,
I
told
him
this
is
going
to
be
like
sending
our
children
into
a
laboratory
for
a
big
experiment
and
then
we're
hoping
for
the
best.
Okay,
I
don't
want
to.
I
don't
want.
I
don't
want
to
be
in
that
position.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
if
it
was
my
kids,
I
don't
know
how
many
you
kids
going
to
have
going
to
public
school,
but
this
is
not
good.
G
I
think
we
need
to
admit
that
we
are
about
to
make
a
big
mistake.
I
think
we
need
to
turn
this
thing.
Whole
thing
around
and
rethink
this
thing:
we're
getting
ready
to
go
into
flu
season.
That's
gonna
cause
multiple
problems.
Okay,
we
don't
know
what
we're
dealing
with.
We
now
know
that
the
children
are
coming
down
with
covet
19,
the
children
okay,
so
we
we
better
rethink
this
whole
thing.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
I
think
that-
and
I'm
finished
here
when
I
say
this-
what
has
happened
in
our
state
in
our
communities?
G
We
have
let
politics
played
a
major
role
into
this
because
the
other
perfect
storm.
This
is
a
election
year.
That's
not
good,
along
with
corvette
19,
because
some
people
don't
have
true
intentions.
They
just
want
to
follow
a
lead
from
washington.
There
is
no
leadership
in
washington
y'all.
Take
that
any
way
you
want,
but
that's
that's
just
my
opinion.
People
are
dying.
G
The
numbers
are
not
on
our
side,
we're
having
a
meeting
like
we're
flatlining,
you
know,
every
everything
is
like
on
the
down
would
would
struck
not
so
even
to
this
day,
the
the
numbers
are
still
peaking.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
you
guys
are
smart,
okay,
but
we
got
to
be
real
here.
We,
what
the
heck
we're
sending
our
children
into
the
perfect
storm.
B
Dr
poster
wait
or
or
miss
belcher.
Could
you
please
answer
representative
gilliard
question?
We
do
have
two
plans,
there's
a
plan
and
a
plan
b.
Can
you
please
explain
that
to
plan
a
and
the
plan
b
to
representative
gilliard.
G
B
So
so
the
two
plans,
dr
poster
wait,
are
you
on.
B
Okay,
can
you
respond
please.
C
I
can
the
plan
itself
has
two
parts:
one
is
an
in-person
part
if
that
becomes
safe
any
time
during
the
school
year.
Any
plan
is
that,
if
that
is
not
safe,
it's
all
remote.
It's
all
virtual,
with
frequent
begins
with
children
as
it's
safe
to
do
that.
Those
are
the
two
plans
and
they
are
modeled
after
national
models.
We
are
on
conference
calls
with
the
largest
school
districts
in
the
country
every
week.
C
We're
keeping
with
the
national
model
models
and
culture
is
looking
at
the
research
that
exists,
so
the
plan
a
and
plan
b
are
in
together
in
the
plan
that
we've
presented.
Thank
you
for
the
for
expressing
the
concerns.
We
have
the
same
kinds
of
concerns
about
children
who
are
going
back
into
households,
particularly
in
populations
that
are
especially
vulnerable
to
the
ravages
of
covet
19.
G
And
I
hear
people
describe
this
thing
like
going
to
war
where
we're
in
a
war
with
no
commandos,
nothing
has
been
tried
and
tested
all
we
know
that
people
are
still
dying
and
that's
dangerous.
It
is
so
dangerous
and
I'm
just
appalled
to
the
fact
that
we
won't
wake
up
to
that
fact.
Everybody
you
know
we
want
to
give
each
other
accolades.
I
think
we're
not
at
that
point
now.
Okay,
I
think
we
need
to
wait
on
the
accolades
yeah
I'll,
treat
anybody
with
dignity
and
respect.
G
A
Okay,
next
is
senator
sin.
R
Thank
you,
chairman
camp
campson
and
also
dr
postal
waite.
I
appreciate
everything
that
you
all
have
done.
Maybe
I'm
the
only
person
who
feels
like
it's
for
my
family
at
least
we're
going
to
shoulder
into
this
thing,
because
you
can
bring
in
all
the
counselors
and
stuff
that
you
want,
but
the
bottom
line
for
my
son
and
my
youngest
son
is
15.
R
He
needs
to
be
there
in
person,
so
we're
willing
to
do
it,
and
I
love
my
father
better
than
anybody
and-
and
we
all
have
people
that
we
love,
but
we
also
have
to
do
the
best
that
we
can
for
our
kids
education
and
for
those
who
are
asking
questions
without
without
a
solution.
I
would
ask
that
you
at
least
present
a
solution.
R
I
I
would
dr
postal
weight
ask
two
questions.
One
is
for
those
people
who
have
decided
that
they
want
to
go
online
only,
but
then
halfway
through
the
year
maybe
decide
they
want
to
go
back
to
the
school.
I
understand
you
can't
have
25
different
start
dates
and
things
of
that
nature.
It
would
be
disruptive,
but
at
the
same
time
could
we
not
have
an
option
that
maybe
parents
go
online
for
half
a
year
and
then
at
midterm
decide
if
they
want
to
come
back.
C
Yes,
ma'am.
I
have
to
keep
switching
computers
because
we've
had
technical
difficulties,
so
we
can
only
speak
from
one
here,
but
yes,
ma'am!
That's
exactly
the
plan.
Carolyn
belter
talks
about
on-ramps
and
off-ramps.
C
So
at
the
elementary
level,
if
you're
in
all
virtual,
at
the
end
of
the
first
nine
weeks,
you
could
switch
back
to
the
other
option.
If
we've
been
able
to
open
up
schools
and
there's
capacity
at
your
school
at
the
high
school
level,
we
would
ask
it
for
one
semester,
because
the
course
will
run
a
semester
if
you're
in
ap
calculus
online.
You
would
not
want,
of
course,
to
be
switching
so,
as
you
suggested,
at
the
end
of
a
semester.
C
If
we're
able
to
open
this
safely
and
a
parent
feels
more
comfortable,
then
that
option
is
always
there
to
to
transfer
in
or
transfer
out
of
the
virtual
option
for
the
children
who
chose
to
go
to
regular
school.
If
we
have
to
open
up
in
remote
mode,
they
may
go
three
weeks
in
remote,
come
back
with
the
same
teacher
back
into
the
classroom.
C
R
Thank
you.
So
that
dovetails
a
little
bit
into
my
next
question.
Now
everybody
is
saying
how
great
the
teachers
have
done
and
the
teachers
have.
Nobody
has
experienced
anything
like
this
before
and
for
you
know,
people
to
say
we're,
throwing
our
kids
to
the
wolves
by
sending
them
back
to
school.
I
mean
our
option
is
what
not
send
them
to
school?
I
mean
we
have.
We
have
to
do
something,
but
I
can
tell
you
from
my
perspective,
as
the
mother
of
a
15
year
old,
who
went
who
goes
to
academic
magnet.
R
R
I
witnessed
my
child,
who
was
used
to
a
very,
very
rigorous,
rigorous
schedule,
go
from
that
to
two
hours
a
week,
so
the
counselors
would
say,
wake
them
up
at
the
same
time
each
day
and
make
sure
that
they
are
trying
to
keep
the
same
schedule.
They
don't
have
the
same
schedule.
They
have
a
class
at
eight
a.m.
On
monday,
then
they
may
have
on
thursday
a
class
at
2.
It
changes
everything
changes
that
is
not
school.
Yet
I
can
tell
you
that
the
private
school
senator
kempson
can
attest
to
this.
R
I'm
sure-
and
my
sister
has
a
child
in
private
school
and
she's
part
of
the
family.
Obviously,
so
she
was
here
with
me
a
lot
she's
in
elementary
school,
but
actually
she's
in
5k,
but
a
lot
of
the
kids
that
I
know
they
are
in
private
schools
and
those
kids
had
to
attend
class
regularly.
You
you
keep
your
same
schedule.
R
I
don't
understand
why
that's
hard
for
the
teachers,
the
kids,
the
administrators,
to
keep
the
same
schedule
that
they
had
when
they
were
in
school
and
and
this
business
of
coddling
them
and
saying
they
don't
get
to
get
zeros
or
you
know
they.
You
know,
we've
got
some
kids,
don't
need
coddling,
and
I
think
that
you're
right
it
may
be
at
the
school
level.
They
need
to
make
that
determination.
E
Certainly-
and
I
I
appreciate
your
point,
my
son-
I
think
we
operated
with
grace
and
and
to
the
extent
that
we
all
could
in
the
spring,
because
none
of
us
expected
that
to
go
on
as
long
as
it
did
and
as
as
you
know,
we
were
very
lucky
relative
to
other
districts
in
charleston
county
that
we
had
already
made
a
significant
investment
being
able
to
distribute
devices
having
some
online
adapted
digital
technology.
E
But
I
would
say
definitively,
I
think,
in-person
instruction
is
always
better.
The
challenge
here
is:
we
have
to
deal
with
what
we've
got,
so
our
our
strategy
in
moving
forward
is
to
do
what
you
suggest
in
terms
of
having
a
very
clear
schedule
of
classes
across
the
board.
Again
our
we're
leaning
towards
having
teachers
report
to
the
schools,
even
if
we
open
fully
virtually
so
they'll
do
instructions
from
classrooms
that
one-on-one
instruction
and
more
organized
day,
and
that
we
will
have
regular
accountability
and
assessments
at
the
state
level.
E
The
guidance
was
to
to
not
teach
new
content
and
obviously
ensues
me
in
the
spring.
That
is
not
what
we're
going
into
this
year.
We
have
to
catch
students
up.
We
have
more
than
a
year's
worth
of
work
to
do
so.
It's
critically
important
that
we
accelerate
instruction,
so
we're
going
to
have
to
regularly
monitor,
assess
and
move
students
through.
R
Okay,
but
thank
you
just
to
follow
up
on
that-
is
the
intent
to
make
it
like
a
full
day
of
school,
because
the
I
can
tell
you
porter
cow
ashley
hall
and
even
hammond
in
colombia.
They
had
never
faced
coven
before,
but
even
with
the
little
ones.
They
had
to
be
there
from
say
nine
to
twelve
and
keep
their
regular
schedule,
whether
it's
show
and
tell
or
whatever,
on
the
zoom
and
then
in
the
upper
levels.
R
E
R
K
R
He
didn't
do
a
lot
of
his
work
and
you
know
why
he
didn't
because
he
said
that
he
was
going
to
make
the
same
grade
no
matter
what
he
he
couldn't
even
raise
his
grade,
and
he
knew
he
was
going
to
finish
with
a's
and
b's
because
couldn't
give
zeros
and
you
really
couldn't
do
anything.
So
what
are
we
gonna
do
to
make
these
kids
that
are
used
to
being
challenged,
challenged.
E
So
I
was
on
the
faculty
meeting
with
academic
magnet
this
week.
Ma'am.
I
don't
think
you
need
to
worry
so
they
they
were
most
concerned
about
the
fact
that
the
the
delay
in
the
start
meant
that
they
had
to
figure
out
how
to
accelerate
ap
instruction
and
make
sure
that
students
were
ready
for
the
ap
test,
which
is
still
going
to
be
held
likely
at
the
same
time
a
year.
So
this
is
creating
a
challenge
for
them
there.
T
Hey
everyone,
dr
postal,
wait
and
staff
board
members
and
delegation
members,
as
we've
learned
just
for
a
little
while
we've
been
on
here,
there's
a
great
diversity
of
opinion
about
what
we
all
ought
to
do
and
that's
the
way
it
is
in
everyone's
home.
That's
the
way
it
is
in
everyone's
family
right
now.
T
There's
differences
of
opinion.
Some
believe
we
should
pretend
like
there's,
there's
nothing
out
there
that
could
harm
us
and
there's
some
that
just
want
to
shut
everything
down
and
everyone
stay
inside
and
one
day
we'll
come
back
out.
So,
as
senator
campson
started
out
the
meeting,
I
think
we
ought
to
give
everyone
a
little
measure
of
grace.
T
I
appreciate
the
efforts
of
your
staff
in
what
you're
trying
to
do
to
move
through
something
without
precedent.
We
haven't
done
this
before,
so
it's
not
like.
We've
tested
it
because
we
don't
know,
but
I
do
believe
that
safety
of
our
students,
teachers
and
staff
has
to
absolutely
be
first.
T
If
we
have
to
push
back
the
school
start
date,
then
we
need
to,
and
it's
my
understanding
from
what
I
heard
that
if
everything
goes
right,
if
the
medical
community
and
the
experts
are
telling
you
to
start
that
it's
okay
to
start
in
classroom
instruction
that
that
can
occur
beginning
september
8th,
is
that
right.
C
Yes,
sir,
it
would
be
miraculous,
but
that
is
correct.
It
is
also
correct
that
we
will
check
every
month
and
if
we
can
begin
october
1st,
we
will,
if
we
have
to
delay.
So
we
will
continue
to
check
just
as
quickly
as
we
are
able
and
based
on
advice
from
medical
experts.
We
will
and
our
hope
just
to
be
very
frank
with
everyone.
C
Our
hope
is
that
we
could
bring
a
few
students
into
schools
where
the
medical
community
says
the
setup
is
safe
and
the
and
the
teachers
themselves
are
comfortable
working
students.
We
don't
know
whether
that
will
be
possible,
but
it's
our
intent
to
where
it
makes
sense.
To
start
it
and
the
medical
community
concurs
on
september,
8th.
T
T
C
So,
as
I've
said,
the
only
metrics
that
exist
statewide
right
now
are
those
issued
by
tech
locally.
Dr
katie
richardson
is
working
very
very
closely
with
dhec
unit
and
our
district
and
the
officials
at
mus
include
four
four
physicians
who
were
assigned
or
requested
to
work
with
us
by
dr
cole
and
dr
cauley,
so
they're
both
on
the
hospital
side
and
on
the
sc
side.
One
is
an.
C
The
board
has
that
authority
and
just
as
the
experts
as
and
the
school
district
can
agree
on
what
those
criteria
look
like,
so
they
could
be
shared
public
publicly
and,
and
everyone
can
understand
what
we're
looking
for
and
what
the
community
has
to
gather
in
order
for
us
to
get
the
numbers
under
control
so
that
we
could
open
that's
what
we
want
to
do.
We
simply
have
not
because
of
the
extra
workload
that's
been
created
for
the
folks
at
musc
and
dhec.
C
They
haven't
been
able
to
donate
as
much
time
to
us
as
they
had
hoped
to
donate
when
we
first
talked
about
this
about
a
month
or
six
weeks
ago.
So
the
the
the
data
the
metrics
come
from
musc
in
concurrence
with
our
local
dhec.
They
would
be
site-specific
with
respect
to
the
kind
of
setup
that
we
have
at
each
site
and
they
would
be
transparent
so
that
the
entire
community
could
see
what
it
is
we're
looking
at
considering
and
then
the
final
vote
is
up
to
the
charleston
county
board
of
education.
C
C
It
could
be
that
we
have
to
start
all
children
remotely
on
september,
8th
and
then
october
would
probably
would
likely
be
the
early
start
date
unless
we're
in
the
middle
of
a
14-day
decline.
That
is
a
drop-off
that
shows
the
entire
community
has
heard
to
where
asks
wash
your
hands
and
social
distance.
T
C
Jeff,
do
you
recall
what
the
three
are?
I
don't
have
them
in
front
of
me.
I
can
look
them
up
really
quickly.
D
Yes,
ma'am
it's
the
two
week,
the
two-week
incident
rate,
a
trend
in
an
incident
rate
and
a
two-week
percent
positive
rate
and
that's
related
to
the
number
of
people
that
test
positive
and
that
going
down
so
two-week
incident
rate.
We
have
to
have
a
the
though
each
of
those
three
items
are:
are
graded
low,
medium
and
high,
and
so
we
have
to
bring
the
all
the
three
of
those
down
or
in
some
cases,
two
out
of
three.
I
believe,
but
we're
high
in
all
three
right
now.
T
We're
high
on
all
three
and
it.
It
appears
to
me
that
we'll
be
pushing
things
back
beyond
september,
8th
unless
something
miraculous
begins
to
happen
in
the
community.
We've
talked
about
having
parents
have
options.
T
What
about
teachers,
because
the
teachers
are
are
mixed
on
this
too,
I
know
some
who
are
anxious
to
get
back
into
the
classroom,
and
I
have
some
who,
quite
frankly,
are
are
very
fearful
of
going
back
into
the
classroom.
How
are
we
addressing
teachers
needs
right
now,
because
I
tell
you
what
our
teachers
they've
been
asked
to
do
some
some
things
in
the
past,
but
now
right
now,
what
they're
being
asked
to
do?
They're,
absolutely
heroes,
all
of
them,
and
they
deserve
the
absolute
utmost
respect
for
every
one
of
us.
T
These
are
trying
times,
and
I
want
to
make
sure
our
teachers
are
well
taken
care
of
in
this,
particularly
those
who,
who
feel
that
it
is
unsafe
to
go
back
into
the
classrooms.
How
are
we
dealing
with
with
teachers
who
do
feel
like
their
health
would
be
jeopardized
if
they
were
to
step
back
into
a
classroom.
C
Senator
grooms,
we
are
take
this
off.
We
are
surveying
next
week
after
the
board
approves
the
plan
based
on
the
contents
of
the
plan,
the
board
approves,
we
will
send
the
re
the
enrollment
intents
to
all
parents.
During
that
same
time
frame
we
will
reach
out
to
every
single
teacher,
see
what
their
preferences
are,
what
their
intents
are,
and
to
check
to
see
if
any
of
them
have
conditions
that
would
prevent
their
being
able
to
come
to
work
safely.
It
is
our
hope
that
we
can
match.
C
We
get
the
parent
surveys
back,
that
it
will
be
possible
to
match
the
preferences
of
the
teachers
with
the
preferences
of
the
parents.
That's
where
we're
going
to
start.
I
hope
that
that
will
work
out.
I
would
hate
to
force
someone
to
come
to
work,
who
is
deathly
afraid
of
being
in
that
classroom?
I
don't
think
that
that's
the
right
kind
of
learning
conditions
or
working
conditions
to
ask
anyone
to
work
in.
So
that's
our
stand.
C
T
Absolutely
what
whatever
that
you
need
that
our
teachers
need?
Please
communicate
that
as
quickly
as
possible,
because
I'm
with
you,
I
don't
want
someone
to
feel
obligated
to
be
somewhere
where
they're
not
safe,
it
it
wears
on
them,
and
everyone's
perspective
right
now
on
on
the
disease
on
this
pandemic
is
different.
T
T
Our
gain
was
always
lost,
but
thank
you
for
being
here
and
and
and
miss
belcher
welcome
to
the
charleston
county
school
district.
My
gosh
wait
what
a
way
of
baptism
by
fire
absolutely-
and
I
appreciate
the
open
communication
that
we
have-
and
I
hope
this
continues
throughout
this
because
it
is
it's
unprecedented.
We
none
of
us
have
done
this
before,
but
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
look
out
for
the
needs
of
our
community
the
best
we
can-
and
I
know,
you're
doing
the
best
you
can
under
these
circumstances.
K
Good
evening,
everyone
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
I'll.
Echo
representative,
stavanak
stavinaka's
comments
and
saying
that
dr
posterweight
and
his
staff.
I
know
that
this
has
been
an
extremely
challenging
time,
and
so
I
commend
you
for
putting
this
together.
I
know
it
isn't
easy
and
we're
all
over
the
place
as
far
as
what
needs
to
be
done,
but
it
has
to
be
done,
and
certainly
I
commend
you
for
it.
K
I
do
have
a
few
points
that
I
want
to
address,
but
I'll
just
make
a
blanket
statement
before
getting
into
my
my
questions,
which
is
simply
to
say
that
I
I
would
love
to
go
back
to
school.
I
want
to
go
back
to
school.
I
think
our
children
and
teachers
want
to
go
back
to
school
and
that's
never
been
the
question
about
the
desire
to
it's
never
been
a
question
about
the
benefits
of
in
person
versus
virtual,
because
we
know
that
our
children
are
in
a
better
position
in
person.
K
The
question
has
always
been
and
remains:
is
it
safe
to
do
so
and
if
it
is,
how
do
we
do
it
and
how
do
we
make
sure
that
they
get
the
kind
of
education
that
they
deserve
and
the
quality
of
that
we're
prepared
to
give
it
to
them?
And
so
with
that
being
said,
I'll
go
into
the
three
points
that
I
want
to
make.
K
I
did
ask
a
question
in
the
chat
to
mr
barrory
earlier
and
so
I'll
follow
up
on
that
point,
which
is
I
asked
about
if
a
steward
a
student
tests
positive
or
will
that
student
have
to
quarantine?
I'm
reading
that
he
said
that
10
days
since
symptoms
first
appeared
in
the
fever-free
for
three
days
with
improving
symptoms,
and
then
close
contacts
are
quarantined
for
14
days.
So
the
two
questions
that
I
have
as
it
relates
to
that
is
one.
K
What's
the
well,
I
guess
there
are
three
questions,
one.
What's
the
process
for
reintegration
after
the
quarantine
two,
while
on
quarantine,
will
they
be
going
through
the
virtual
academy?
What's
that
like
and
then
three?
What's
the
provision
for,
if
there's
some
kind
of
class
outbreak,
where
you've
got
a
an
entire
class
that
might
be
infected
and
come
back
at
positive
at
the
same
time
and
they're
about
maybe
10
15
students?
What's
what's
the
plan
for
them.
C
So
I
can
answer
one
of
the
questions
when
we
have
children
who
have
to
be
out.
It
is
our
plan
because
it's
such
an
unusual
year
to
have
teachers
or
support
staff
paraprofessionals,
who
can
when
the
students
are
feeling
well
enough,
reach
out
to
them
and
make
sure
that
they
get
the
lessons
that
they're
missing.
We
think
we
can
organize
ourselves
to
do
that.
C
D
I
I
would
just
add,
I
think
it's
a
great
comments,
a
great
question.
We
have
to
be
prepared
for
the
worst
case
scenario.
If
there
is
what
would
be
called
an
outbreak
and
we
would
really
be
relying
upon
the
advice
of
our
our
medical
professionals,
every
case
is
different
and,
and
so
to
say
this
is
you
know
if
one
kid
is
positive?
Two
kids
are
positive.
Three
kids
deposit
all
depends
upon
that
contact,
but
there
could
be
a
circumstance
where,
indeed,
an
entire
class
is
sent
home.
D
K
Okay-
and
I
get
it-
I
mean
you,
you
guys
are
in
the
unenviable
position
of
having
to
make
that
decision,
because
you
know
my
fear,
is
we
don't
know?
You
know
this
virus
is
continuously
giving
us.
You
know,
throwing
us
in
different
directions
and-
and
we
could
potentially
be
in
a
situation-
come
fall
where
we're
we're
on
an
incline
again,
and
so
you
know
obviously
that
that's
going
to
dictate.
K
So
I
understand
why
there's
a
lot
that
you
can't
make
a
decision
on
now,
but
you
know
for
for
clarity
purposes
and
for
reassurance,
for
you
know
mostly
our
parents,
teachers
and
students.
You
know
having
those
provisions
in
place
are
good.
So
thank
you
for
that
answer.
The
did
you
answer
the
reintegration
part
how
they
get
back
into
the
classroom
after
I
know,
obviously,
after
the
quarantine
is
it
just
simply,
you
know
do
they
have
to.
I
don't
know
if
you
said:
do
they
have
to
test
negative
a
couple
times?
No.
D
D
It
right
we're
looking
at
getting
our
nurses
approved,
to
be
able
to
do
that
test
which
could
be
part
of
the
protocol,
although
it's
not
required
to
be
tested
to
come
back
and
then
the
other
point
I
did
want
to
make
is
that
if
the
student
is
still
not,
if
the
student
just
has
symptoms
and
is
not
ill,
they
can
be
receiving
schooling
at
home
during
that
entire
time
that
they're
quarantined,
so
they
may
not
be
absent.
They
may
continue
to
be
schooled.
K
Okay
and-
and
since
you
just
answered
that
question
you'll
be
the
one
for
this
one,
because
it's
more
for
an
infrastructure
standpoint.
I
I
know
that
in
the
plan
that
you
announced
last
week,
that's
being
voted
on,
there
was
some
talk
about
certain
schools
having
full
capacity.
Half
capacity
run
run
through
that
again,
exactly
where
you're
at
as
far
as
the
ability
to
safely
socially
distance
within
certain
schools,
I
think
there
was,
I
think
dr
posterweight
talked
about.
K
Maybe
a
certain
percentage
of
the
schools
in
the
districts
have
the
ability
right
now,
based
on
the
number
of
students
to
be
able
to
you,
know
perfectly
socially
distance
and
not
have
to
you
know,
reconfigure
the
areas
and
then
there
are
other
schools
where
that's
going
to
provide
a
problem
where
you
have
to
do
maybe
the
staggering,
depending
on
when
you
decide
to
go
back.
So
just
just
clarify
that.
For
me,
please.
D
Yes,
sir,
our
our
goal
was
to
maximize
the
number
of
seats
that
could
be
safely
provided
in
the
classroom
and
by
using
the
divider
concept.
We
were
able
to
do
that,
even
if
we
can
achieve
the
full
capacity
of
the
school
based
on
the
current
rates
that
we
have,
although
we
could
achieve
the
six-foot
distancing,
the
rates
are
so
high.
We
would
not
want
to
put
our
schools
in
position
that
every
just
because
we
can
fit
every
kid
back
at
this
point,
we
wouldn't
bring
every
kid
back.
We
want
to
determine
that
maximum
capacity.
D
So
when
we
receive
that
point
where
we
can
bring
all
the
kids
back
with
six
foot
social
distancing
or
the
dividers,
we
know
what
that
number.
That
number
is
and
we're
about
50.
We
believe
that
at
least
50
percent
will
achieve
that.
We've
just
completed
installation
of
the
dividers
on
our
third
school
and
we're
rapidly
moving
out
on
that,
and
even
if
we.
D
K
Okay
and
then
my
final
question
is
the:
are
you
asking
students
or
parents
to
sign
any
waivers?
I
see
natalie
is
on
the
call
with
legal,
but
is
that
something
that
the
district
is
considering.
S
K
A
Thank
you,
representative
darvish.
It's
representative,
moore.
U
Yeah
thank
y'all,
so
much
for
putting
this
on.
You're
gonna
have
to
bear
with
me
and
look
at
my
my
glamour
shot,
but
I
got
a
couple
questions
number
one,
I'm
just
real
concerned
with
the
you
know,
and
obviously
these
are
unprecedented
times
and
everything
seems
to
be
uncertain
in
all
aspects
of
life.
U
You
know
my
but
my
mom
is
an
educator
has
been
in
an
educational
field
for
40
years,
I've
had
a
number
of
conversations
with
both
superintendents
and
educators,
and
parents
and
students,
since
this
pandemic
started-
and
I
guess
I'm
just
really
concerned
that
instead
of
based
on
where
we
currently
are,
you
know
which
all
of
you
all
have
said
at
the
school
district
is
not
possible.
It
doesn't
seem
likely
that
september.
The
8th
is
going
to
be
a
star
date
for
in
person.
U
So
why
not
just
take
the
position
that
it's
not
going
to
be
september
8th?
Why
have
a
plan
b
when
we
know
realistically
that
there
there
is
not
a
magic
cure,
or
these
trends
aren't
going
to
change
based
on
the
lack
of
leadership
we've
seen
as
far
as
the
things
that
need
to
be
done,
I.e
requiring
mass
throughout
the
state
and
other
things
the
numbers
aren't
going
to
go
down
so
so.
U
C
So
the
answer
is
that,
regardless
of
how
we
start
the
definitions
under
which
we
start
we're
going
to
have
to
be
prepared
this
entire
year
to
transition
from
the
ability
to
bring
some
children
in
person
to
a
covet
infection.
That
would
not
permit
us
to
bring
any
children
in
in
person.
So
we
have
to
have
both
plans
ready
to
go
regardless
we're
holding
out
some
hope.
C
We
might
be
able
to
bring
a
few
students
in
not
I'm
not
talking
about
thousands
of
students,
but
we
may
have
a
few
students
who
could
start
in
person
on
september
8th
if
they
and
their
parents
want
them
to
start
if
they
desperately
need
to
start
and
if
their
teachers
are
willing
to
teach
them.
If
the
medical
professionals
say
for
this
and
these
particular
children,
this
is
safe.
C
Under
these
conditions,
we
don't
think
that
we'll
be
able
to
start.
It
would
take
a
miracle
for
the
numbers
to
drop,
but
we
do
want
to
be
ready
to
start
just
as
quickly
as
the
as
the
numbers
demand
that
infection
rate
diminishes
to
the
point
that
it
makes
it
safe
for
parents
who
want
to
have
their
children
in
school
and
teachers
who
are
willing
to
come
back
to
be
able
to
do
that.
C
So
it's
a
bit
like
the
one
if
by
land
and
two,
if
by
sea,
we
need
to
be
ready
with
both
options
and
throughout
the
year
we
may
be
in
situations
where
we
have
to
transition
from
one
other.
So
we're
not
we're
not
saying
we
going
with
plan
a
we're
preparing
for
both
plans.
Equally.
U
With
all
due
respect,
I
I
just
think
it's
just
troubling
to
hear
when
you're
talking
about
the
lives
of
the
most
precious
asset
we
have
in
the
state
of
young
people,
we're
having
so
many
ifs
and
miracles.
I
mean
to
me
I
just
I
to
me.
I
just
think
it's
it's
a
misstep,
but
but
but
I'll
I'll
I'll
digress,
and
I'm
just
also
concerned
when
it
when
it
comes
to
the
social
and
emotional
and
mental
health
of
of
kids.
U
Just
the
the
emotional
and
mental
stress
that
this
is
gonna
have
long
term
when
we
finally
get
through
this
pandemic,
and
I'm
just
I'm
just
going
to
give
so
much
pushback
about
trying
to
open
up
or
even
having
a
plan
to
open
up
in
person
when
when
we
it's
just
so
uncertain,
I
just
don't
think
it
makes
a
lot
of
logical
sense
to
do
so,
and
it
is
really
unfair
for
our
students,
especially
those
that
have
been
marginalized
and-
and
I
know
the
argument
is
where
the
marginalized
students
need
to
come
to
school.
U
But
then,
then
you
have
a
risk
of
the
marginalized
students
getting
sick
catching
covet,
and
you
know,
based
on
you
know
us
not
expanding
medicaid
care
here
in
south
carolina
them
and
with
underlying
issues
they
have
it's
just
I
just
don't
think
it's.
I
just
don't
think
it's
the
right
thing
I
just
and
there's
no
way
anyone
can
convince
me
on
this.
U
Call
that
starting
school
in
person
or
even
having
a
plan
to
do
it
until
we
get
past
covet
high
peak
makes
any
sense,
and
I
don't
know
if
anyone
can
try
to
convince
me
otherwise,
but
it
I
don't
see
why
you
have
to
have
a
a
plan
a
and
b,
when
it
should
just
be.
Let's
make
virtual
learning
the
absolute
best-
and
you
know
to
comment
on
something
I
think
senator
sen
said
is
that
we
got
to
realize
that
this
is
a
we
have
to
realize.
This
is
a
new
normal.
U
You
know
we
can
have
rigorous
education
from
a
virtual
standpoint
and,
quite
frankly,
that's
where
education
is
probably
trending
anyway
from
a
virtual
perspective,
long
term.
So,
just
I
don't
know
if
that's
a
comment
or
or
or
what,
but
I
just.
I
think
this
is
very
frustrating
I've
been
on.
This
call
listened
to
the
presentation
and
it
it's
nothing
that
you
all
can
convince
me
of
that.
A
Sense:
okay,
do
we
have
anyone
else
who?
Okay,
any
other
members,
have
a
question
comment
before
we
wind
up?
Okay,
we're
only
20
minutes
over
time,
but
again,
chairman
mack
and
superintendent
postal
weight.
We
appreciate
you,
you
taking.
P
A
T
This
is
grooms,
hey.
T
I
do
have
another
question:
we
we
talked
about
hot
spots
in
the
county
and
medical
experts.
Is
it
pop?
Is
it
possible
where
one
part
of
the
county
could
actually
have
in
classroom
instruction
and
another
part,
not
is
it?
Would
it
be
uniform
across
the
county
we're
either
going
to
move
forward
with
in-class
room
instruction
when
it's
safe
for
the
whole
district
or
or
maybe
would
just
not
have
in
district
or
in
classroom
experience
for
those
who
say,
live
west
ashley,
or
has
that
been
considered.
C
Right
now,
the
d
heck
metrics
that
we
have
look
at
the
at
the
county
as
a
whole,
the
more
precise
metrics
it
would
allow
us
to
look
more
closely
at
a
particular
school
or
at
least
particular
zip
codes.
C
It
that's
a
question
that
we're
waiting
for
greater
clarity
on.
Q
C
In
one
particular
part
of
our
county,
there
may
be
low
levels.
The
question
is
the
extent
to
which
teachers
coming
to
that
school
are
coming
other
areas
of
the
district
or
or
the
children
who
are
coming
to
that
school
on
the
weekend.
Interact
with
family
members
from
other
areas
of
the
district
does
not
seem
likely
that
we
would
be
able
to
treat
different
parts
of
the
county
different.
For
that
reason,
based
on
the
explanations
that
we've
received
from
the
experts
in
the
conversations
in
which
we've
engaged
to
date.
A
Okay,
well,
members
thank
you
and
for
your
for
your
participation
and
your
interest
and
to
the
school
board,
to
chairman
mack
and
to
superintendent
postal
weight
and
the
staff.
We
appreciate
you
being
responsive
and
we
we
appreciate
the.
A
Obviously
you
put
a
lot
of
planning
into
this
and
anytime,
I
think
of
planning.
I
reflect
upon
general
dwight
eisenhower,
who
was
the
supreme
commander
for
allied
forces
in
the
european
theater
and
he
was
he
was
in.
He
was
supreme
commander
and
he
had
never
commanded
troops
in
battle.
I
don't
know
if
I
you
know
if
you've
ever
read
his
his
biography,
but
I
don't
know
that
until
I
read
his
biography
and
why
would
they
appoint?
A
Why
would
the
president
appoint
dwight
eisenhower,
who
had
never
commanded
troops
in
battle
to
be
the
chief
supreme
allied
commander
in
the
european
theater,
and
they
did
because
he
was
such
a
detailed
and
specific
planner?
That's
why
they
did
and
he
planned
for
years
for
the
d-day
invasion
and
really
the
fate
of
the
the
fate
of
the
world.
Afraid
of
free
world
was
on
his
shoulders
with
the
decisions
he
made
and
he
delayed
because
of
weather.
A
A
None
of
us
has
ever
dealt
with
dealt
with
a
covet
virus
or
anything
like
it
either,
and
so
I
do
appreciate
the
planning
and
even
if
we
have
to
push
it
back
or
even
if
it
never
materializes
that
you
do
in
in
person
learning,
which
is
very
important.
I
do
but
it's
very
important
not
to
put
people's
health
at
risk,
including
the
teachers
who
are
the
ones
who
who
have
the
least
amount
of
choice.
A
At
this
point-
and
I
agree
with
senator
grooms
and
others-
we
really
need
to
pay
attention
to
their
concerns,
but
I
do
appreciate
the
plan
and
I
just
pray
to
god-
that
we
will
get
through
this
successfully
with
limited.
