[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers could have been national heroes. "Getting kids back into the classrooms is the most important thing. Parents are great, but nothing can replace in-person instruction from qualified and trained educators. That's why we're doing everything we can to get back to in-person instruction at the start of the 2020-2021 school year. We can do this safely for everyone. We will make this happen."

National heroes. You'd have a lot less resistance getting those billions for teacher's salaries had you actually put the kids first.

Whoever has been advising the Association/Federation on PR and policy should be fired.[/quote]

Back in July, I wasn't going to be a national hero at the risk of my health and my family's health. I do agree that things are different now. But 6 months ago, no.[/quote]

And you are the very first teacher I have heard say that.  So thank you.  I understood the anxiety in July. We were all anxious. No one knew.   It is different now with more data and vaccinated  teachers. But the you hate your kid, DL is a good education, you just want to kill teachers rhetoric does not feel like it’s slowed. If anything, it seems like teachers are hardening. [/quote]

I’m a NP and feel like the other poster. I’m also a parent with kids in FCPS. I want them back in school. We all do.  But I didn’t want to return last summer. I don’t have any issues returning now.  I don’t post on social media or anything like that, but yes, I’m hardening in my conversations to DH. I have been reading hateful posts directed at teachers for a year now. I used to think I would do this for 30 years and now I’m undecided how long I want to stay. I’m hoping I feel better when I’m back in the classroom with students but for now, I’m regretting this profession.  I’m not part of any association and sick of the teacher union hate. There are not any unions. Teachers don’t have a say in most decisions.   And to the other poster, I never wanted to be looked at as a hero. I want to be treated as a professional and I want people to let me do my job. That goes for administration and parents. [/quote]
