[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The July letter, which I just re-read, outlined in-person, remote & hybrid models and stated that there would be an update closer to the start of school, in mid- August. There was an update at that time, which may not have been what was hoped for or planned, but reflected poorly trending numbers (positivity rate in Alex City rising to nearly 6% over the past 2 weeks), new info about child transmissions, and probably resulting trepidation from teachers. What would you have done differently? A letter every week saying that they are still coming up with a plan to be announced in mid-August?  I am not a fan of remote learning, but  I don’t recognize this Burgundy community anymore.  [/quote]

Of course the July letter said nothing was set in stone. Butter  July Zoom had a VERY different message.  If a significant portion of the community feels duped and that the process has not been transparent, then there is a major communications problem.  It is predictable that Alexandria City could see a slight rise in Covid during the summer and if that was the reason for an about face, then benchmarks should have been identified earlier in the summer.  It is also predictable with flu season around the corner that opening the school in any form in October will be challenging.  I am one of many who have lost faith in the leadership to make decisions in a transparent way. If you are part of this team, I would encourage you to rethink the communications strategy. [/quote]
