[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is it. Some schools will be able to expand a little bit but DCPS has brought back pretty much all of the teachers who could come (60%).

Your non-title 1 schools especially are filled. So if your child is at a school that is not title 1, it's very unlikely that there will be many more in person slots.

I am in person now and have 3 students, I feel thankful for having to be back in person. They are all just ELL students, easiest job ever. No one at my school wanted to come back and now class sizes have ballooned to 36-40.[/quote]

See that seems so crazy to me.  Is it that so few families wanted to return?  In that case admin should have said all virtual because there isn’t enough demand for in person.  It is a waste of resources to have a class of three and another class of 38.[/quote]

Schools aren’t allowed to say that. They HAD to open (which is so dumb in these types of situations)[/quote]

The 3 student class is ridiculous.  The principal must not have surveyed demand very well.  They could have not offered a class for that grade.

Oh I know, I had 10 students but 7 of them backed out at the last minute for fear of safety (what the families told me). These are 3 kids I never had before until now. Now everyone is mad because they lost their teacher and class sizes are higher. But we cannot not give these 3 families in person, bit of a pickle.

I imagine term 4 I'll have more students...[/quote]
