[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do people think this is a good plan for Students with SN or ELL? They are still receiving all of their special instruction virtually. At best they are getting babysitters. Babysitters who will be setting them up on iPads to receive there services.

Also WTU has been fighting DCPS for months because DCPS violated the law. That is literally what the PERB review showed. Even the council members during the Town Hall Friday expressed dismay at DCPS poor planning and lack of transparency around reopening schools. So blame DCPS for the delay not the people holding them accountable. Unions were created to protect people from unsafe working conditions. Sounds like they are doing their job.

So say you want your children out of your house, say you want things back to normal but don’t say this plan is good for students. And its not safe for anybody. 100’s of kids and teachers in one building. I dont think so. Not for me or my child with SN. [/quote]
Well, they get their main content live, but their supports virtually. But I see your point - its really hard to say how successful this could possibly be. [/quote]

So if SN parents don't value the live main content - give the gen ed kids their gen ed teachers back for virtual teaching, and bring in the specialists!! [/quote]

Well thats illegal. And it would not work since Specialist have to go between classes to service children of different grades. My point is that we need to wait until its safe enough for ALL students to go back even if it is broken up in a cohort model. And ALL students should remain with the teacher that they have built a relationship with these past few months. Even if I did send my kid back theres no guarantee it would be with his current teacher. We are all at risk of losing our teacher. And its hard enough for my child with SN to build a relationship with new adults in the first place.

Also its not that I dont value live instruction. Its that I dont think this plan supports my child in a way they could receive instruction. More importantly I dont think its safe. Between the Cares classrooms and the live instruction classrooms thats too many people in a building. [/quote]
