Parents, take responsibility
Reading about the mumps epidemic, here are my thoughts. I am a mother and grandmother who believes that vaccinating your children is a must if they are going to be out in public locations. Or if parents choose not to, then they need to be kept in seclusion.
Now, the school officials are all worried that these students will fall behind in their schoolwork and are scrambling to find ways to keep them up. Let the parents find a way to keep them up on their work. Please, for once in your life take responsibility for your children. You were the ones who brought them into this world.
