Like a genie granting three wishes

I think that’s what we need to do…

Starting now, first school district that:
* Has all faculty, staff, and qualifying students vaccinated
* Does not need to resort to quarantines for X amount of students
* Has zero student, staff, and faculty deaths from COVID
And for 3 months

They can get ANY 3 requests to improve the quality of education in their school district.

* Tablets/laptops for all students. Yes!
* A college fund for all high school students. Yes!
* Funding for school supplies and books. Yes!
* Science and computer labs. Yes!
* Arts programs. Yes!
* Funding for field trips that can take students from rural Washington state to Washington DC for example. Yes!

Not only do we get to improve the quality of education and save lives here, but we get to see those idiots screaming at school board meetings now up against people with a very big incentive - 3 wishes.
