[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a teacher who gets sick quite often (and I catch everything from my students) I find it highly offensive and incredibly rude that you’re judging teachers like myself for being out sick. You don’t know what people have going on in their personal lives- sick parents, children, appointments, etc so why don’t you come do our job for us bc clearly you seem to know better. [/quote]

I’m not knocking you for being sick. That is part of life. But it seems like the school can’t find substitutes so one teacher ends up trying to manage and teach a combined group of kids for the day. It’s not fair for the teacher who has to take on 2 classes at the same time and the kids don’t actually learn that day. They typically get to play on a computer or just read a book. There is no surge capacity. I get this is a system wide problem (not the teacher) but you have to admit it sucks for learning.

With any business (or government agency) that requires in-person interaction with “customers” to be successful, you can understand why a school can’t be effective without teachers. The school has to have an effective plan for when their employees can’t go to work. I’m not knocking you. [/quote]
