255 COVID-19 Confirmed Cases in M-DCPS; One Week Before the Election
The highest number of cases is at Miami Senior High which has eight. Kendale Lakes Elementary has 7, followed by Miami Lakes K-8 Center with 6. Coral Reef Senior High and Henry E. S. Reeves K-8 Center both have 5. Other schools on the list have 4 or less.
This week, President Hernandez-Mat, Vice President White, and Secretary-Treasurer Grimes-Festge are joined by Balsera Communications Vice President Sonia Diaz.
We are extremely concerned with the continued spread of the disease and are hearing reports every day about new infections in schools that have yet to be officially added to the dashboard. In addition, we hear reports every day about teachers, staff, and students being quarantined because of the positive test in in their schools. These stories are heartbreaking and, as a union, we have been focused on this as the most pressing local issue. We need to get the election right for the sake of our country, but we also need to make sure we vote all the way down the line to the School Board races so that when our teachers and district staff are facing a crisis we have responsible leadership to work with. The numbers of infections keep climbing.
With one week left before the General Election, Early Voting locations are open every day.
This Day in History. Oct. 27 On October 27, 1810, U.S. President James Madison proclaimed that the United States should take possession of West Florida between the Mississippi and Perdido Rivers, based on a tenuous claim that it was part of the Louisiana Purchase. The West Florida government opposed annexation, preferring to negotiate terms to join the Union. Governor Fulwar Skipwith proclaimed that he and his men would "surround the Flag-Staff and die in its defense". William C. C. Claiborne was sent to take possession of the territory, entering the capital of St. Francisville with his forces on December 6, 1810, and Baton Rouge on December 10, 1810. Claiborne refused to recognize the legitimacy of the West Florida government, however, and Skipwith and the legislature eventually agreed to accept Madison's proclamation. Congress passed a joint resolution, approved January 15, 1811, to provide for the temporary occupation of the disputed territory and declaring that the territory should remain subject to future negotiation.
