APS School Board Watch Thread

This is a joke. They do not care about students, it's so clear.

Thank you Barbara for pressing this

Agree, they have all these cuts to make, they can't have virtual by school.

Demanding virtual in every school is irrational and unreasonable.

+1. A dedicated county-wide virtual class is so much better than concurrent. If parents insist on school-based virtual, it will end up being concurrent, to the detriment of all.

Durand and the school board need to put an end to this discussion. it's ridiculous. Families that are expecting concurrent in the fall should go private if not comfortable

+1000.. because the families that are not comfortable with teachers vaccinated will never be OK with this. they should remain remote or private

+1,000,000.

What did they say about summer school?

Two tracks, one virtual, one in person. Both 5 days a week.

this meeting makes me want to vomit. Where is the display of positivity and perseverance? This is not the message we are trying to deliver to our kids and students.

From Duran and Loft, I'm hearing "this is tough to figure out, I'm giving up and taking the easy route" (for an entire YEAR).

I feel so badly for all the teachers and Principals that support the kids back in school full-time. Because it's becoming so clear that Duran has his own agenda to prevent that from happening.

I missed the speaker section of the meeting. Why are people pushing for virtual at each individual school next year? If most kids are back in person, why would you want your kid in a virtual class with just a few other students instead of in a regular virtual class with kids combined from various schools? What am I missing?

The we can't rearrange the bus stops is absolutely ridiculous. WHY do they make their job so unnecessarily complicated. starting with limiting to 11 students on a bus. Then- oh maybe we could do 1 kid per seat. (Dude you can do more than that - but siblings together.) Open the windows, its short rides- just fill them up.
Why do you have different bus stops for different days????

But isn’t being a virtual student in a concurrent class worse than being a virtual student in an all virtual class? I still don’t understand why anyone would be pushing for this. What is the upside?

Thank you all for watching this so I don't have to. I'd have an anxiety attack and I don't have any drugs for that.

and they will be masked.. in all seriousness- if this is preventing more kids in school, when exactly will it be OK for full-time in-person learning? when COVID disappears??

I'm done hoping with APS. I'm lpoking to rent near my family where districts are prioritizing full-time, in-person learning.

Because different kids go on T-W than Th-F.
