The chairman of the state Senate’s New York City education committee warned Wednesday of a troubled start to the school year — and didn’t rule out a delay if ongoing issues aren’t solved in the coming weeks.
State Sen. John Liu told The Post that a lack of clear guidelines from City Hall is fueling uncertainty among parents and staffers.
“All the ingredients are there for another chaotic reopening — and possibly a delayed reopening — based on this administration’s track record,” he said. “There are still so many unanswered questions that don’t make me totally confident.”
Liu cited a raft of concerns ahead of the new term — including confusion over social distancing rules, the lack of a concrete plan for COVID-19-infected students, and stalled vaccination rates among school staffers.
“The mayor is trying to project certainty,” he said. “But unfortunately, people are not confident in the certainty he is trying to project. I hope there’s not going to be any delay. But everyone remembers what happened last year.”

Delta ? Just like Obumer's Birthday Bash...
Where is Liu on fixing the failed New York bail reforms ?
Crickets....
Herd immunity doesn’t work when there are two herds.
I’m increasingly on edge as I prepare to send my unvaccinated child back to school. I am so angry at the people who continue to endanger our lives in order to score political points. It didn’t have to be this way.
Project certainty? Well, it's a certainty that most people will survive an encounter with Covid. And it's a certainty that the mayor is an idiot. Is that enough certainty?
How does he know? Direct line to CCP aka red phone?
Senator Liu filling the void between a resigned Gov and a part-time Mayor?
Really?
I dont even know who voted this guy into office again.
Wasn't Johnny the guy that let one of his campaign workers go to jail for campaign violations when he was running for city comptroller? Here's a guy I want to take advice from about education. A CCP stooge.
Kids should record their teachers. The devil is using Teachers to influence the next generation into his will.
Fight parents, fight! I home school my three kids.
This is a perfect example of what the "gangster" teachers union has brought us.
Come to work teachers or you need to be in another profession.
As a teacher: I am upset and sad.
DEFUND ALL PUBLIC EDUCATION AND DISSOLVE THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION !!!
Liu is a proven lifelong scumbag. Whatever he says is political bullshit aimed for his own political benefit. I don't know why he would be quoted on anything.
The left wants to force jabs on people through bullying and othering. They are nazis. They took their poison ☠️ to protect themselves and now want everyone else to take their look aid too. Sorry, but you are weak minded statist worshipers with no Iove for liberty. Take your nazi tactics elsewhere if you are so scared about a flu that 99.66% survive.

Just because you failed miserably at school, doesn't mean that all other kids have to suffer. You can still go back to school and learn your ABC's etc. It shouldn't take you more than 40 years.

That wasn't the devil. It was another guy with a red baseball hat and orange hair. His flames flickered out last November.
"The left wants to force jabs on people" Meanwhile...
U.S. health officials are reviewing if the Moderna shot tied to higher heart inflammation risk.
Education is meant to be about learning how to think not what to believe.
The worst thing we ever did was give control of the education system to the left.

Drama Queen. Nobody’s forcing anything in you.
Fake outrage!
You young folks sure are building a wonderful world.

They successfully educated millions of Americans. Then again, there are millions more that are
un-educatable, like you Mr. or Ms. Anon.

Where have you seen these lefties forcing jabs on people? Are they chasing after them with needles in the subways, in the supermarkets and in the streets? I haven't seen any of these lefties running around with needles and backpacks full of vaccinations? Can you enlighten us some more?

Did someone spike your vaccine with a microchip? Or maybe they spiked it with a little too much LSD.
@DEFUND ALL PUBLIC EDUCATION AND DISSOLVE THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION !!!
Education? Hardly, more like INDOCTRINATION. One should see what goes on in today's schools under the cover of "EDUCATION"
@Just because you failed miserably at school, doesn't mean that all other kids have to suffer.
Apparently you are failing to understand what is going on in the schools today.
Nobody said anything against real EDUCATION. Engage brain before opening mouth.
I get all my scientific facts from CNN and Sabrina, the teenage witch.
I think I would have a better time if i changed my vacation plans from Australia to North Korea.
