[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here.  Keep in mind those people are a small (yet vocal) minority.  All the teachers that I know IRL want to go back into the classroom.  (Of course, my friends and I are in the 25 to 50 year old set.)[/quote]

I really hope that's the case.[/quote]
I’m a 55 year old teacher and really want to go back. The ones who don’t want are more than likely  the so called specialists or focus teachers who don’t really have much interaction with students to begin with. [/quote]

It’s the opposite at my school. The most worried are the older teachers or teachers with health issues that are teaching huge on level and inclusion classes, sometimes with multiple adults in the room. The woman who teaches across from me has two paras and sometimes an ASL interpreter in her classes. She had thyroid cancer. She has 31 years in MCPS so she can retire July 1, but is way too young for SS. If she leaves, we lose a great teacher and will get a 22 year old I guess. Too bad she is disposable simply for being sick.[/quote]

How about the effect on the students of those classes of not being in school? [/quote]
