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.

It’s 2023, we don’t know what or how many mutations are going to occur over the next year, but we know we have made ourselves the perfect petei dishes to maximize the process.
Covid is here forever but it’s so weak now it’s nothing more than a cold for 99% of the population. You can live in fear or you can move on and follow basic hygiene against any and all viruses and bacteria.
Seriously, stop proudly proclaiming how little you know about the topic.
We understand you are still scared. That is okay. The rest of the population have moved on after the threat was removed. I’m vaccinated as well as my family and that is enough for most people.
The virus doesn’t care about your feelings.
You are willfully ignoring the simple science of the fact.
Please, PLEASE get a handle on your emotions, and do some learning.
People don’t even moderately care that 50 people on the planet died from covid this month. I honestly can understand why. It’s clear you are deathly afraid of it, that’s you, not everyone else. You’re not selling your argument . Next time come with something legitimate and maybe you’ll get the attention you are looking for.
