[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This sounds like a nightmare for schools.  How are they going to cover teachers regularly being out for half a day?  My kid has an IEP and the teachers are legally required to be present for the meetings, and it's hard enough to coordinate coverage for that.  [/quote]
No
Ma’am. They are required to give input. 
Schools had better start offering work settings that mirror the work from home perks. [/quote]

:roll: Teaching is by its nature not a flexible job. And teachers are usually free by 3:15 and all summer … not to mention three weeks of break during the school year. [/quote]

I’m so tired of hearing this. That simply means that at 3:15, I can pick my own time to do the extra 4 hours of work I still have to get done that day. (Kind of like weekends. I still have to work 10-12 hours, but I can actually pick which hours. Lucky me.) And summers? I figure that’s my break for the 60-70 hour weeks I’ve been working all year. Summer is the only time I can take care of my own needs: my own appointments, my rare chance to get to the gym, etc.
