Attendance in the Lee County School District dropped to 81% just nine days after the first day of school.

Less than two weeks into the school year, a Kentucky school district has canceled in-person classes for the rest of the week after nearly a fifth of its students came down with Covid, strep throat, the flu and other illnesses.

The Lee County School District, which has just under 900 students, began classes Aug. 9 but noticed attendance drop to about 82% on Friday, Superintendent Earl Ray Schuler said.

By Monday, the rate dipped to 81%, and 14 staff members called in sick, Schuler said.

    You have already been told multiple times.

    REPORTED deaths.

    Most of the reporting systems were (prematurely) terminated because of ding dongs like you.

      So we should just believe YOU based on nothing? Have you considered running for the Republican nomination with that logic?
