[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we factor in how this absence of an announcement is affecting teacher morale and parent buy-in to the system??

They need to at least acknowledge that things didn't go as planned (twice!) and outline what is happening or what is holding things up.[/quote]

+1.  This makes me think something shady is going on.[/quote]

It seems so odd that they had teachers sign up for training already and yet aren't saying anything. The lack of communication is so very MCPS.[/quote]

The teachers aren’t saying anything because we are in the dark as well. You are correct that teachers have already had to sign up for training (Two days for the new ELA curriculum). We selected dates, but no locations are provided for the trainings (trainings are all in person this summer). They could be held anywhere within the county. [/quote]

The pandemic provided people with some things that should stick and Zoom trainings over the summer are absolutely one of the things MCPS should not be getting rid of. [/quote]

I agree completely! However, all trainings for elementary teachers are in person (all locations TBD). [/quote]

Not sure why MCEA members didn’t push for this during negotiations. I need to get out of this district ASAP. It’s a disaster.[/quote]

It’s fine for central office employees to work from home but god forbid they continue providing employees with virtual options for SUMMER trainings. They don’t trust grown adults to do their job…constantly micromanaged…. But yet they trust us with children day in and day out. It makes absolutely no sense. I resigned last week. Cannot wait for these next few weeks to be done with this place. [/quote]

Congrat! What will you be doing in place of teaching? [/quote]
