Teachers are the only ones left that appear to care about stopping the spread.

BATON ROUGE - A group of teachers in East Baton Rouge plan to skip classes Wednesday in protest of current COVID protocols at the parish's public schools.

"This is the only way that we can have consistent education right now," Valencea Johnson, president of the East Baton Rouge Parish Association of Educators, said. "Because of COVID, we have to do things differently. We just can't say, 'well, oh well, we're going to send them in the building.' We can no longer do that."

EBRPAE held a news conference Tuesday afternoon and sent a list of demands and potential solutions to EBR Superintendent Sito Narcisse.

Narcisse told WBRZ that it's unclear exactly how many teachers will be out on Wednesday but that classes will go on as planned.

1. Even when you're in class, you're fighting.

I spent every three minutes of every class telling fifth graders to pull up their masks over their noses.

They don't get it or they don't care how contagious Omnicron is.
