[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What our school has told us, and I believe them, is that they have considered every available option for housing kids for on-site/in-person learning -- every room in the building converted to a classroom, outdoor classrooms, rented trailers, etc.--and that so long as the guidance is 6-ft. distancing, they simply do not have the space to put all the kids back on-site beyond hybrid.

In our case, at least, I am confident that it is not the school that we need to pressure.  We need to push the federal and state governments to expedite vaccines and push local governments to get creative about finding more spaces for school kids.  [/quote]

We heard similar from our charter (we could be talking about the same school). But I still don’t think that absolves them of just writing off the year to DL. Why weren’t charter schools (via the charter board? On their own?) lobbying like hell to get their staffs vaccinated ASAP? I know that the vaccine distribution system has hit many bumps, but surely, if education was a priority in this city, vaccine sites would have been set up at every single school on day 1 that vaccines were available to teachers. The lack of urgency is just astounding. [/quote]
