I truly like our schools teachers but it’s hard not to get bitter about stuff like this after so many closures. I honestly want to ask the school to cancel all planned teacher work days and pointless federal holidays (president days?) for the rest of the year.   My kid’s classrooms have closed entirely for over 20 schools days since thanksgiving.  Teachers could have done all their teacher workday stuff then.[/quote]

This is why nobody wants to work in the daycare field. The staff have to survive on $30,000 per year and now give up their holidays because classrooms closed during a pandemic? There is a certain risk associated with all schools and daycares right now. As a public school teacher I understand the frustration of students at home but please take care of your teachers. They are not at fault and are sacrificing enough right now. [/quote]

We love and respect our daycare teachers.  The school is a co-op so I know exactly how much they are paid.  The head teacher in my son’s class room makes over 60k, plus full benefits including retirement.  That’s still to little imo but it’s not 30k.

To the point about the closures - our classrooms closed for more than TWENTY school days since thanksgiving.  That is more than 4 weeks of care and instruction, which we paid for, and during with the fully vaccinated teachers were home not working.  You’re telling me they still have to have two teacher workdays each quarter?  Public schools make up snow days in the summer and sometimes on federal holidays.  I don’t see why that’s outrageous to ask in these circumstances [/quote]

Ours did this! Gave us a teacher professional day back as a regular school day. Of course we ended up in quarantine again starting the day we were supposed to get back. But it was appreciated [/quote]
