[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Principals, counselors, school psychologists and social workers, school staff and teachers spent hours contacting each family that did not complete and return a form via the online process. You are doing a great disservice to their hard work by claiming that this was not done. I can assure you that these staff members care greatly about the students and families in their schools. Certainly they care more than you do. Your speculative claims of inequity because you think that not all families were contacted or offered an opportunity to indicate their preferences are unfounded and patently untrue. [/quote] Even so, those children still deserve another chance at getting a seat if one comes open and they now come forward and request a switch from virtual to hybrid. I certainly acknowledge what educators, principals and other ACPS staff have done and all their valiant efforts are indeed appreciated. My beef is with the system and central office—that’s where the blame lies for ineffective communication, unfair policies, and rigidity in the name of equity. I do care and am advocating now that more flexibility be allowed for changes to accommodate family’s shifting needs during this crisis and to account for possible challenges some families had with completing the form despite attempts to reach them. We should not close the door on them now![/quote]
