Read full article: Broward public schools adjust to an additional 21,000+ students returning to classroom desksBROWARD COUNTY, Fla. – As the second semester started, Broward County Public Schools reassigned some teachers from virtual learning to schoolhouses to deal with an increase in students who returned to classrooms’ desks on Wednesday. The fourth-grade student said his favorite teacher was one of them, and without her, the lack of continuity was confusing. But officials said the parents of more than 20,000 students have opted for the change. Wednesday’s official attendance reported an increase of 21,303 students who switched from a virtual at-home education to a schoolhouse classroom this semester. Broward Superintendent Robert Runcie said on Monday the number of parents who are sending their children to public schoolhouses increased, so some schools could reach a 60% capacity.
Thailand upholds 2014 death sentence
Read full article: Thailand upholds 2014 death sentenceiStock/junial(CNN) - Thailand's Supreme Court has upheld the death sentence for two Burmese migrant workers convicted of murdering two British backpackers on a Thai resort island in 2014. But Thailand's top court Thursday upheld the death penalty, ruling that forensic evidence against the convicted men was "clear, credible, and detailed." An appeals court upheld the guilty verdict in 2017. Andy Hall, international affairs adviser to the official legal defense team, said that while he respected the decision of the court, the death penalty sentence against the two should "be reversed and quashed." In June last year Thailand lifted a de facto moratorium on the use of the death penalty, executing a man by lethal injection in the country's first execution since August 2009, rights groups said.
