[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the big deal if some is driving? I do that all the time for work meetings while I am shuttling my kids around.
School staff are usually juggling a million different things. Your expectations are unrealistic [/quote]

So is this a MCPS rationale as to why staff want to keep IEP meetings virtual in perpetuity??? Staff want to be free to do other things - grade papers, text, have side bar conversations, and drive - while checking off a legal requirement to hold an IEP meeting for a child.

Do you have the same expectations as to when a teacher is supposed to be teaching a class? They can be driving a car and teaching at the same time?

In my line of work, doing other tasks during an office meeting would be considered rude and unprofessional. If we are meeting with a client, 100% cause for being terminated. It sends a clear message that you do not value their time and the purpose of the conversation.[/quote]

A teacher driving and teaching at the same time is a dumb analogy and you know it. 
I’m sorry but most people who work are doing multiple things while on a zoom meeting. 
That’s just how it is. It isn’t ideal but people are often overloaded and trying to manage as best they can. 
Do you advocate for more school staff? Because that is what schools probably need to be able to get everything done with fidelity [/quote]
