[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a HS teacher whose planning got cut by more than half this year thanks to IPR hall duty and additional required CTs and department meetings, those random days off are the only reason I’m staying afloat this year. I use every holiday and snow day to plan/grade.

If they disappear, they have to take something else off my plate. I can’t do it all with less time.[/quote]

Everyone of those snow days and random days off is a tax of hundreds of thousands of dollars on the FCPS parent body. You are not presenting a good value proposition for keeping them.[/quote]

You keep repeating this as if it’s the schools’ problem.

It 👏 is 👏 not. 👏 [/quote]

It is, however, the school board’s problem. They’re the ones who are meant to be responding to the concerns of their constituents. [/quote]

You can keep regurgitating this over and over again, but the vocal minority arguing for it doesn't make things happen. FCPS cares about THEIR money, graduation rates, and test scores.

THEY. DO. NOT. CARE. that your PRIVATE childcare costs are causing you a burden. You emailed, they responded and told you what you wanted to hear as they politically have to to keep earning your vote. [/quote]
