The UFT, in another spectacular display off half-assedness, has placed 18 schools on a list to determine whether they should be closed due to swine flu, yet refuses to name the schools.
Apparently, these schools had a LOT of kids out last week due to illness, much like my school. So far, 6 schools have been closed.
Ron Davis of the UFT said that releasing the names of the schools would create a panic. Which begs the question, why would you create a list that you have no intention of using? Isn't it going to scare everyone to know that there are 18 schools out there that may well be spreading infection and not telling us which ones?
This is the usual modus operandi of the UFT. Remember when we were all asked to grade Joel Klein on the last day of school last year, when the results of the poll would be least effective? What ever happened to that poll? Has Randi demanded that the failing Chancellor be removed for the D- he received? No, she's too busy swapping spit with Mr. Klein to do that.
And remember, if you must swap spit with the chancellor, always use mouthwash afterward, as this is a potential means of spreading swine flu. And you can bet that your school won't be closed if you catch it. At most, you'll get on a list.
