[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Half the teachers in my NW DC school have refused to show up due to childcare or medical accommodation, despite day cares/babysitters being available and vaccinations fully available.  [/quote]

I think this is the issue that at this point generates the most ire (at least for me).  I could understand prior to vaccination that teachers were TOTALLY FREAKED OUT by covid.  They had the power to refuse to go in-person, and they did (and I think that is partially on the union, but certainly unionized charter teachers also refused to go in).  But post-vaccination, the continuing refusal to go in is...well...it's not a good look.  I get there are logistical challenges and differing things going on in every single school, but there are enough instances where it appears that teachers have taken advantage of the easy-to-get accommodations and have therefore just decided to continue working from home.  That suggests they really don't care that DL is not providing adequate education for many, many kids.  [/quote]
