[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good news!

I’m a parent, and I stand with the teachers.

DCPS Central Office and the Chancellor need to get their house in order, take a pause, ENGAGE parents and teachers, and aim to reopen with a real, safe, plan in Feb.[/quote]

Thank you. You have no idea how much your support means. We support you and your family too! We are here for you and will be advocating for you and your families.[/quote]

No you don't. Your stupid plan targets children and families instead of management. How do you people have no idea how to conduct a strike?[/quote]

Dear previous teacher poster,
Please know that 1,000 DCPS parents signed this letter of solidarity with you.

ONE THOUSAND.  In just a few days.

There’s a lot of conservatives out there who want to damage public schools and damage unions, because a few rightwing billionaires can make money by privatizing education.  And this opinion, for whatever reason, is overrepresented on DCUM.

Parents are with the teachers.  DCPS has no good options because of Republicans mismanaging the pandemic.
But parents all know you’re trying hard.

Real DCPS parents reading this thread, I encourage you to send a note to your teachers now talking about what you’re happy about with their teaching, and saying you support them.

(I’m sure we’ll get more anti-union, anti-teacher replies to this.  Ignore them!)[/quote]

Thank you again from another teacher. Unfortunately we need to come to forums to get information about our schools that we work because we are so often left out of the loop. It’s been quite visceral to be quite honest. Speaking for myself personally, this wasn’t an easy decision to make. My entire life is my job and my students - my kids, if I may - are like family. I hope this terrible pandemic ends so that we can return to schools and offer a safe, loving environment for all students. Teachers are nothing without the families that support and trust us with their children’s lives. Be well and thank you! [/quote]

so are you not planning to go back into the classroom until the pandemic is over? and what's that metric?[/quote]
