[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCPS PreK teacher here.

Sh*t happens. A real teacher who cares about her students will change them. As a parent and teacher, I would expect my child's teacher to do the same. I have heard no such policy, it's just not true. The teacher is LAZY and does not care for your child. As the saying goes, Kids don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Be weary.[/quote]

I am also a DCPS pre-k teacher.

It is the educational aide job -it literally says so in their job description. It does NOT say that in ours.

Now some aides REFUSE.

Would I change the occasional poop accident personally? Yes. I experienced anxiety throw up as well for the first 4 months…even though I had a horrible gag reflex.

Some teachers really just want to teach-even pre-k.

Am I a little judgmental? Yes because if a parent gave me all the tools I’ll use them.

Now if there’s no change of clothing and it’s continuous -I will send the kid to the nurse. (No kids in my class have no change of clothing, I have bought clothing for children before only to never have them come back as extras).

Anyway bottom line, unless extenuating circumstances the child will be changed by the educational aide (for sure) or if the teacher doesn’t mind.[/quote]
