[quote=Anonymous]It would be wonderful if this question were moot, but if "reopening" means anything less than 5 days a week, full day schooling with teachers in the classroom, it will continue to be an issue. Currently D.C. is claiming its schools ARE open. But they are not. Teachers can claim exemptions to refuse to return to the classroom, and have, which is why we have no real return to school in Term 4; school principals are claiming they "expect" to be reopen in the fall but won't commit to that in writing and DCPS won't either. Why? Because the WTU would like to continue the option of remote teaching for its members and are pushing for a 4 day work week w/ reduced hours. (Don't get me started on the "non-instructional" Wednesdays when teachers claim they are available to students but are ). See, for example, what LA teachers union has negotiated while parents beg for a return to full time, in person school: https://www.the74million.org/article/court-documents-reveal-how-l-a-teachers-union-gained-upper-hand-in-pandemic-negotiations-limiting-instruction-time/ [/quote]
