[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does every thread turn into teacher bashing?? Why??  We get it you hate teachers and think we are dumb as a box of rocks.  The thread is about the letter DCPS sent out.  No one is asking you your opinion of teachers.  No one is asking you to post the AAP article.  Literally no one. Can we stick to the topic?  You can start your own thread about the terrible people that schools employ, but leave this one alone.

Because teachers are 100 percent wrong? Because they’re fighting to suspend public education in this country even as health experts say it’s safe to reopen? Oh, and teachers want to continue to be paid while they fight to keep schools closed? If you don’t want to do your job then do us all a favor and quit.[/quote

Honest question:  do you feel it is safe to return to school in Texas, Arizona and Florida?  [/quote]

We don’t live there. The number of coronavirus cases in DC is tiny. About 30 cases per day.[/quote]

I understand we don’t live there. I am asking you would you open schools in that situation?[/quote]

Not PP, but, no. We can't apply the same solution everywhere. In those states, people are openly defying mask guidance on political principle or whatever. They don't deserve schools open.

Here, we are almost all following strict guidance, and it is working, but we're in a crisis. I think we need schools open and we will work with schools to be very, very safe at home (if not, we should accept distance learning). I think there are plenty of steps the city government needs to take in order to make it safe as possible. Don't forget we also put ourselves at risk by sending our children. The risk is all around us, we can only mitigate it.

No need to take a few teachers and parents on an anonymous board too seriously. These rude ones are the outliers, at least among parents I know most of us do are a lot about safety of the school staff, but there are a lot of things to weigh here. [/quote]
