San Francisco sues its own school district to reopen classes

Imagine the howls if Trump had been behind this. Oh wait, we don't need to. All we have to do is go back to last summer, when Trump insisted we open the schools.
Now it's okay, since Trump is gone, and the new strains are circulating. Hilarious.
SAN FRANCISCO —
The city of San Francisco took a dramatic step Wednesday in its effort to get children back into public school classrooms, suing its own school district to try to force open the doors amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The lawsuit was the first of its kind in California and possibly the country, as school systems come under increasing pressure from parents and politicians to end virtual learning. Teachers unions in many large school districts, including San Francisco, say they won’t go back to classrooms until they are vaccinated.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera, with support from Mayor London Breed, said he sued the San Francisco Unified School District and Board of Education as a last resort to salvage what’s left of the academic year. They say it’s safe to reopen schools and keeping them closed was hurting kids' well-being.
