@realDonaldTrump Getting ready to claim "voter fraud" when you lose the election? I suppose that is a strategy. Hope your ego can survive this all.

If people can go out and protest, riot, break into stores, and create all sorts of havoc, they can also go out and VOTE — and keep our Election Honest. With millions of mail-in ballots being sent out, who knows where they are going, and to whom?

The mistake I see many schools making is attempting to fit traditional schedules, curriculum, assessments, etc. into the remote model and crisis in which we find ourselves. This has never happened before. Do not make a square peg fit in a round hole. Lets rise to this occasion.
