[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Staff have been notified that they must all report and work from the building’s beginning January 4th. FCCPS should be encouraging everyone to stay home and keep numbers down. Teachers must now teach from school, even while students remain virtual. This is one of the most irresponsible decisions they have made. Why force teachers to come in when students are not there? [/quote] Different district, and they made us do this at her beginning. It was a nightmare because there isn’t a separate room for every teacher, teaching assistant, and related service provider to work from. That means only one person can have their microphone on or you get horrible feedback. The wifi at the school is slow, so the video feed was breaking up all the time with everyone on it at once. Because we couldn’t be alone in the rooms we all had to wear masks at all times, and the kids could barely understand what we were saying. Teaching phonics was impossible. People kept coming in and interrupting to ask questions, drop off paperwork, etc. and it was very distracting. They eventually changed the policy. It was an ill advised method of control and did nothing to improve any productivity or student learning. [/quote] FCCPS addressed this. They spent thousands on cameras and mounted them in the high school so they say teaching with masks and wifi will not be a problem. They have it all figured out. Like most schools, the ones not teaching classes every day know what is best for teachers. [/quote] What do mounted cameras have to do with wearing a mask or being alone in a room? Mounting a camera doesn’t create twenty extra rooms or prevent COVID from spreading via aerosol transmission. [/quote] I'm not sure about the 20 extra rooms but they have addressed the aerosol transmission. Either you aren't paying attention or just want to complain. [/quote]
