The responsible thing the Ohio General Assembly could do would be to shutter campuses now.  Unfortunately we are going half speed ahead on re-opening with plans to fall down to online-only if things get bad.School districts are insisting on “local control” and Ashtabula Area City Schools is horrifyingly insisting on 5 days a week back in the classroom for every child.

There are procedures for removing elected officials in Ohio for malfeasance, misfeasance, nonfeasance, and drunkenness that don’t require recall elections.  I’m not sure I’m ready to dig into those.  Too many people think locally that coronavirus doesn’t really exist and won’t impact them so I might not get the support needed to push for removing the school board’s membership.
