[b]The WTU has made a wide-ranging proposal to DCPS and hopefully that is being negotiated now.[/b] There are a host of issues beyond vaccinations that need to be worked out.

Is there any reporting or documentation of what is in this proposal?  I ask this more as a parent who is anxious about school not being in-person at the beginning of the school year again -- I realize that there are strong statements it will happen but I'm concerned that we will have an unexpected surprise in August (like we did last year when no agreement could be reached).[/quote]

I have not seen any reporting (which does not mean there hasn't been any since I don't read everything), but it was discussed in the Council hearing about reopening the schools. The WTU President referenced it several times but declined to go into details in order to protect negotiations. She said that the proposal had been provided several weeks ago and she was upset that DCPS had not responded earlier. She said she believed that it was now being discussed ("now" being the time of the hearing).

Exactly. If WTU opened negotiations weeks ago, but DCPS refused to respond, then why do so many people continue to malign WTU? Shouldn't DCPS be held to blame for refusing to negotiate as required? But the WTU press team is absolutely terrible and continues to have the DCPS team run circles around them and convince the city, with apparently very little effort, thst only WTU is to blame.[/quote]
