[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is great.  
We need to personalize it because this will get things going.

This way it's not some abstract even union that is keeping kids out of school; it's each schools unique group of teachers. 
My school's teachers are primarily in their 20s.  There is nothing preventing the vast majority of them from coming back (outside of the few that have a hidden medical condition). 
They just don't want too.  Do you blame them?  Who would want to commute in when you can teach in your PJs?
This will put massive pressure on the school to change this.

I don’t think it’s going to cause more schools to open.  You are thinking like a monolith. If it is up to the school, I bet most will just open care classrooms. I the worst possible outcome here is to leave it to individual schools. I think it will cause more parents to be pissed.

Person you're responding to.  Why are you being an ass and calling me a monolith? You think this is a pipe dream for ANY kids to go back in ANY form?
Why?
Certainly we can't get all kids in full time.  But what is preventing some teachers from returning? 
Eager to here why you think why this can't work when I have two kids who live in NW DC and have been attending a (non-DCPS) school for the past 2 months.

There is ZERO reason why teachers can't return for small groups of children. 
I think putting this on individual schools will massively accelerate this vs. having to move as one large district.

Personally I'll be writing to my principal weekly, asking for an update on why her teachers are unable to teach in person now that I know that it's up to them to stay home. 
Please give your thoughts.
