[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers deserve more planning time.   For that to happen you might be inconvenienced.  At our school kids can stay at school and leave at regular time on early release Mondays.    You all want good teachers,  but you don't want to provide them with the time, $$, and respect they deserve.  [/quote]

I ask this kindly but what has changed in the over time? I don't recall near as many teacher work days when I was in elementary and the only early dismissals was the last day of school. [/quote]

Not a teacher but I was briefly a monitor at an elementary school. The training required just for that job was annoying, and the load on teachers between state law and district policy is intense. Plus I believe they have a lot more useless meetings. Lots of webinars to watch that are merely FCPS or Virginia covering their rear ends so they can say "it's not our fault this person messed up, don't sue us, we made them watch training/go to a meeting!"

If we could get rid of that I imagine the planning could get done in planning time.[/quote]
