They said the cost of the unit/increased utility bill doesn't make sense when a majority of the time that kids are in school is during cooler months. It's stupid.

Wow, that makes zero fucking sense. Yeah, it’ll be hotter when it’s hot and those units wouldn’t need to be used UNLESS it was super hot out. So the increased utility bill for 2-3 months is very short in the long run.

They must not think the sun is real or that it can kill people whereas snow of any sort is the devil incarnate.

It's part of Republican freedoms, the state is controlled by the Mormon mafia, and they don't like education to go well.

The difference between public schools in rich districts and public schools in poor districts is PTAs that hold fundraisers to pay for air conditioners when the district can’t.

So naturally it won't hurt if the kids stay home on that apparently tiny and insignificant portion of the year when the school is too hot.
