[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This post is bonkers. Teachers are allowed days off like anyone else. I have zero problem with them requesting days off that week. However, admin should have ensured proper coverage before granting the days. I think this is a poor management issue, not an employee issue. If they didn't figure out they wouldn't have coverage before they granted the days they should have cancelled leave by senority or request date.

As far as sick days..I dont know any professional job that requires documentation of sick days unless you are out 3 days or more. [/quote]

They had to squeeze Diwali in so they can proclaim the woke, equity and inclusive badge… that’s what you get.

Now, back to blaming teachers for everything.

While you’re at it I’m planning my break. [/quote]

DP.  I dont see where the PP blames teachers.  In fact, I see the exact opposite.  They are laying the blame on the administration, which is absolutely correct.
You are far too defensive and nasty about this and seem to have zero understanding or empathy for parents who now have to plan for 2 additional days at home for children with short notice.
I fully expect the same to happen Thanksgiving week.  Would be nice for LCPS to just admit that now.[/quote]

I don’t think so. Im a teacher and they will definitely have trouble staffing it because they always do even in normal years. Subs don’t pick up those days. What they’ll do I think is split and parcel out kids to other grade level classes in elementary and in secondary, if a teacher is out and there’s no coverage, kids will go to the auditorium for that block and do work left on Schoology . Which isn’t ideal but realistically isn’t much different than what goes on when they’re in a room with a sub who is just monitoring. [/quote]
