[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're keeping our kids at home because we feel that the in-school operations are unsafe.  If we feel that way for our kids then I can COMPLETELY understand why teachers feel that way for themselves.  The kids who have gone back already are either 1) the kids whose moms want them out of the house because they are hellions, or 2) the kids who have special needs or need extra support.  I think most of the kids are in the #1 category.  No way do I want our kids in that mix and, again, I can completely understand why teachers would want to avoid them.  I would, too.[/quote]

JFC. You’re insane. [/quote]

My kids have no special needs and they are ideal students.  Straight 4s in the Life and Citizenship section of their report cards all through ES so far.  Many of the kids in their classes who have returned are similar.  And I loved having them home so much, in many respects, but kids need to be in school and with other kids.  I'm not saying your kids will be (further) harmed by missing out on these 24 days my kids will get in the building, but I do think all of our kids have been harmed by a full year out in ways that may not be immediately apparent.  That harm may have been worth it to keep as many people safe as possible, but it is a reasonable decision for many parents to start easing back in.  Teachers and staff are vaccinated and most high risk parents are, too, or will be soon.    [/quote]

I don’t think my kid has been harmed at all.  Has great typing and computer skills now as a bonus.  [/quote]
