[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you been watching school board meetings? There is no way it will be 5 days. Also- they have successfully cut out Monday already- it will be a four day work week. That is one of the numerous goals of the teachers unions. I recommend for you / others to join a few FB groups that are focused on reopening to get more details about what is going on. Twitter also has a lot of info.[/quote]

I have a question about the 4 day week thing. Would it continue even after covid ( assuming such a time ever comes around)? [/quote]

That is the union's plan.. like many years ago when Mondays were half day..So- yes, I completely think that it will yield to a 4 day school week as permanent. The unions in Virginia will be getting collective bargaining power this summer. This is the WORST thing that can happen to opening schools.[/quote]

Why will get they collective bargaining power this summer?[/quote]

There are still a lot of steps before that happens. Teachers will gain the right in VA to collectively bargain, but the majority of staff first have to say they want bargaining and representation, the school board has to agree to it, and then the staff has to select which group will represent them.[/quote]
