Our School Reopening Plans
-
Due to Luke’s DE classes, he will take the 2 day in person option. We will skip the bus, however. Their plan is to limit to 1 per seat, every other row. They estimate that the 75 person buses will carry 11 people.
Niiiice.

Dual Enrollment. He gets college credit.

And that lasted all of two weeks.

In other words, the teacher’s union won.

unless physical distancing and face covering recommendations are implemented with extremely high levels of consistency
Yup, the teachers won more days at home with pay for doing nothing
Because covid

Not to plug it again, but the NYT’s podcast The Daily had a good episode about school reopenings. Link below.
Anyway, @LuFins-Dad looks like Fairfax County is doing the same. The ripple effect this has throughout the region and workplaces is enormous!

Not sure this is true for all school districts in the US. In talking with some friends, the school may have remote learning, but the teachers are required to be in the building to do the remote teaching. For them, it will be a regular day schedule.

Right, every State, City and County make their own rules.
And the feds can threaten to take away money when they want to make some rules.

True, Copper. But don't forget the average percentage from the feds is around 12%, mostly going towards Title I. So, it's not huge.

@Copper Sorry to hear you have such a low opinion of teachers, Copper. All the teachers I know are working harder than ever to make learning still happen, no matter what situation we find ourselves in.
-
@Copper Do you consider virtual learning programs teaching?
-
I doubt many teachers are doing that, @Copper
All of the teachers I know are working their ass off to teach, whether online or in person. And most say online is way harder and exhausting. This includes my mom who, somehow (?), teaches special ed students. She actually had a medical incident due to the stress involved in trying to successfully teach April.
