[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because those conferences should happening right now, like they have every other year.  These kids are basically getting a full week off of school. I thought they were really concerned about catching kids up from last year.  That week is now a wash.[/quote]

Right now they should be more concerned with teacher burnout. It's real. And while other surrounding counties are doing things to accommodate the mental health and well-being of their teachers, MCPS is piling on more responsibility. [/quote]

Is this for real? [b] What do you think burnout is like in other professions?  Nurses, truck drivers, law enforcement, retail, restaurant workers?  Anyone who has been working in person during this pandemic.  Are teachers somehow more ‘special’?

Teachers worked from home for over a year.  [/quote]

Goes to a restaurant: waits 3 hours for a meal because they cannot get and keep staff
Goes to a hospital: Waited 7 hours because they were inundated and short staffed
Went shopping at Macy's: Waited in a VERY long line as there were only 4 registers open in the whole store
Truck drivers: Look at the grocery store shelves in a lot of areas. Supply chain is NOT there unless you are Amazon
Law enforcement: Major attrition
There is nothing special about [b]teacher's.[/b] This cuts across all industries. [/quote]

I can tell you  are not a teacher.  You can't even spell a simple plural. You would  be fired in my company. [/quote]
