As heat waves creep north, they are baking schools that previously did not need air conditioning. Fixing the problem will be neither cheap, nor easy.
Republicans have been pushing to abolish schools anyway, and just send the kids home to be the parents responsibility. 2 birds, meet stone.
Dang, if only someone could have prevented this! I wonder if this was ever warned? I’m curious (and scared) of what else is coming
Let’s be honest - they always needed AC. They just told kids to suffer for a month at either end of the school year.
In some places, they did. More do now
Everywhere in America, they did. Schools just insisted it was fine.
It’s worse now - but it was already bad.
Fixing the problem will be neither cheap, nor easy.
And as the article does point out, “will” is perhaps the wrong word, as in many states having the money required to add AC is a distant fantasy.
