[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What you are all missing is this situation is now artificially horrible. Schools don't make community spread worse. Now there is higher community spread but we should have been back months ago, and we should go back in January. Take precautions and accept some risk, in exchange for a lot of benefit. [/quote]

We should not be going back in January. You’re insane. [/quote]

Your right, we shouldn't go back in January- we should go back next week.  We should never have been closed.  School spread matches community spread, it doesn't increase it.  If anything it decreases it because there is much more mask compliance etc.  That scare photo that's been circulating on facebook about a little girl with COVID who got it from her teacher?  Her "teacher' was/is a nanny that was hired to help with DL- no masks, no heath screenings etc.  That transmission would not have happened if the little girl had been in school where she belongs.

No- the teachers aren't working hard and I for one am sick of pretending that they are.  If they are spending all day Monday in meetings, that's on them/ their admin.  Its not improving the product.   I have twins in different classes in elementary school.   [b]The teachers are using the exact same lesson plan.  One is much better at delivering it that the other one is- but neither of them is putting effort into these plans.   DL in elementary school is truly horrific.  [/b] We need to get these kids back in school now.   If we are not going to do this- we need to admit to mass failure and plan for mass grade retention.  [/quote]

This is what the OP is talking about. There is one lesson plan for the entire grade at our school. Teachers are taking turns delivering video messages on Mondays and recording "live readings". We are now 2.5 months into DL and most of the tech glitches have been figured out. So tired of teachers saying this is the hardest they've ever worked. [/quote]

Sounds like an APS issue. I can tell you for a 100% fact this isn’t happening in my county or school. [/quote]

which is literally why the OP titled this thread "APS Parent"[/quote]
