"The current salary schedule is so low that thousands of LAUSD educators qualify as low-income for affordable housing," the union said in a recent statement. Thousands of teachers more "are barely getting by just above the median income, living paycheck to paycheck after decades working for the district," the union statement said.

Since then, school policies have softened significantly. At L.A. Unified, for example, parents are directed to send their children to school if they have a mild cold or cough. The main symptoms that require keeping a child home are fever of 100.4 and above, vomiting or diarrhea, according to district instructions on "How to Safely Send Your Student to School."
