[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is unlikely there will be any in-person school.  I think they spent significantly more time trying to explain the plan, then the board got time to discuss it and ask questions.

This is a ploy, mcps presents an overly complicated plan that will never work. Teachers are opposed to teaching in the classroom, and Coved numbers are skewing slightly up. When it turns out we will be distance learning the whole year, Jack Smith can blame the unions. Not his fault.

Back to the overly complicated plan. Every 3 weeks, high schoolers attend 4 days of school? And the rest of the time they're having sex, getting pregnant and getting STDs, not to mention smoking and drinking too much and getting into car accidents. Younger kids, left at home without their parents are burning down their homes, or one parent quits their job to oversee the young 'uns.

As for fall Sports, which was asked about by Smondrowski, O'Neill and maybe someone else, they punted. It's unlikely, but they said the state would decide, not them.   My money is on not a chance.

We can't have Elementary schoolers in middle school and high school buildings, because the buildings don't meet the code for the students.  not to mention it would take so many hours to study such a plan.

Is anyone else sick and tired of listening to the mcps staff talk about how many hours they're working? And how hard they're working? First off they should be grateful to have a job. Second off, do they not think the rest of us aren't trying to figure out how to manage our jobs, and take care of our children, and stay alive? [b]We're all doing the same damn thing, the pandemic is worldwide.[/b] I wish they would stop wasting everyone's time patting themselves on the back for something the rest of us do everyday.

And by the way, the parent survey just closed. No way they used any data from the survey to inform any of this nonsensical plan.[/quote]

Agree with ALL of this.

Teachers aren’t the only ones who have it tough.  So many of us have had to make adjustments to our jobs and lives.  My neighbor is a dentist who spent tons of time researching fogging systems and redesigned his practice so that he could get back to work safely.  He works more now for less money because he can’t see as many patients and has to spend money on PPE.  Restaurants have had a really tough time but have found ways to make it work for the time being.

This sucks all around but teachers don’t have it worse than anyone else.  It sucks for everyone all over the world.  Full stop.  [/quote]
