[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I support the teachers AND I want in-person school. I don't think they are mutually exclusive. I think if DCPS actually worked with the teachers (and parents) to develop a plan with actual buy-in, instead of hatching these plans at Central and then announcing them on the news and expecting everyone to hop on board without asking any questions, we could already be back in-person with some form of hybrid.

There are teachers who want to come back. There are also teachers who don't. There are logistical problems around staffing and how to create a concurrent model. The only way to solve those problems (and they are solvable) is to be working together with teachers to figure it out.[/quote]

THIS !!! - a teacher[/quote]

I agree with this.  I'm also really turned off by the vitriol aimed at teachers.  [b]Someone in my kid's class sent a really mean-spirited, disrespectful note to the the teacher, which I only know about because they cc'ed the entire class, which I found really inappropriate. [/b] And my frustration at the situation isn't served by bashing the teacher, who has been working hard and clearly cares about the students.  I think that the schools should be open, but we're not going to get there the way Bowser and DCPS are going about it.  [/quote]

I would respond to that email immediately, copying all, without acknowledging the complaint, saying that I am grateful for the hard work the teacher is putting in under very challenging circumstances, and that I want him/her to know that we appreciate and support them.  Have been in this situation before with a bunch of a-hole complainer parents; it's such a bad look. [/quote]

So only teachers get to have any feelings? I’m sorry but as a SN mom whose child lost a needed in person class, I was extremely upset all day - and I let all the teachers know. “Actions have consequences” as they say. Teachers should expect harsh words when they go on strike because they don’t want to let SN kids in school. [/quote]

You may be upset but I’m sorry you have a myopic view of only what works for your child. DL is not working for my child and he was not offered a spot. It  was a terrible plan and DCPS knew it. They refuse to ask school staff for any advice and this is what happens [/quote]

so this plan is out and you “support the teachers”. my question is how long will that last? [b]what if [/b]they refuse to return all year?[/quote]

You people are delusional.  There is no what it.  Done deal.  [/quote]

I think these mommies actually believe there will be a kumbayah moment in January and we’ll all go back for term 3. [/quote]
