She was lucky that she had scheduled herself 15 minutes for a bath on Wednesday, although this did mean that she needed to be fed by IV drip for the day. "The sacrifice is truly worth the plummeting test scores," she thought.

Yawn. And if your child's teacher took the few hours during instructional time you would be screaming about how your childs teacher works for just an hour a day. The whining, complaining, crying about what teachers are doing/not doing for you is getting soooooooo old.

15:52...lemme guess, your boss has no idea you have your hand down your pants as you "work remotely". You sound really important.

No, it's obvious that PP was laughing at the idea that teachers are SO SO BUSY that they can't take 10 minutes to partake in any adult actions.

It's ... just not that time-consuming. I'm in-person and got a spot back in February when the process was a total cluster, as did many of my colleagues.

You go t a spot because DCPS helped you. There were designated sites for teachers. Term 4 is different and everyone is on their own. Nice try though.

all teachers have been eligible since early february. if they haven’t managed to get vaccinated, it’s because they chose not to.

Nope, that is an absolute LIE. Teachers who remained virtual were able to get vaccines as of 1st March. Everyone is on their own. All random.

That is absolutely not true. Only school staff who were assigned to in-person in February were eligible to be vaccinated in late January (just a week before they went back to school.) Those who were assigned virtual in Term 3 did not get any priority vaccines but are now (as of about two weeks ago) able to get the vaccine by signing up along with everyone else in DC who has a pre-existing condition etc. there’s no special pool of vaccines and appointments for teachers this time around.

Yes, there was. Four close family members and friends are DCPS teachers- they all got a spot at cvs in less than two minutes once they went in, checked a box saying they are a teacher and boom done. All were able to set an appointment within five days from when they did it. One got a spot two days later

Not in DC. CVS just opened up vaccines in DC this week. All these people saying it was easy jumped the queue or used other means. I'm a DC resident and have no right to get a vaccine in Virginia or Maryland. Your so called friends have shown their true colors.

You're absolutely correct. March 1st was the first day I could sign up and did.

LOL, spot on. I'm so sick of the constant whining from teachers. This is sadly the type of thing actual WTU teachers constantly complain about while they hold our children's education hostage.
