Texas county yields after legal challenge, will allow Christian school to hold in-person classes

Just the News-

A county on the Texas-Mexico border has pulled back from ordering at least one Christian school to remain closed at the start of the semester following a legal challenge arguing that county authorities had no jurisdiction over whether such schools could open. 

Cameron County, Texas, on Aug. 10 announced an “emergency health control order” that delayed “in person face-to-face public and private school instruction” in the county until at least after Sept. 28, and possibly longer. 

That order was pursuant to “the health, safety, and well-being of our teachers, campus staffs, and students” due to concerns that schools in the area might become hotspots for COVID-19 outbreaks if they were allowed to resume in-person instruction.  MORE

  1. Individual citizens should be able to determine the risk level without the aid of imbecilic government who is in the pocket of the teachers union. Excellent ruling!!!

  2. my wifes school got a million dollar donation and is beginning construction on 6 additional classrooms and 2 gyms. And in this political and economic environment, their enrollment is up again this year. People with brains are pulling their children out of public schools to get a good education, you know, one that doesnt distort history and at the same time encourages kids to serve God and man.

  3. Now if only the idiot Texas governor would open the state back up, cases and hospitalizations are down so there’s no excuse to have restrictions on businesses. I supported Abbott and voted for him twice but he’s not handled this situation very well. Shutdowns DON’T work to stop the virus, period.
