[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]This may be one reason parents are fed up— in the past, teachers weren’t all over social media sharing their Disney vacations in February. It may be that the actual instances of teachers taking midyear vacations hasn’t changed much, just the awareness of the phenomenon has.[/quote]

Like the posts sitting on the beach during COVID and talking about how much they missed the kids?

Had a neighbor who did that.

Who cares? The schools were closed, teachers were teaching for home. Who cares if they moved to the beach, as long as they were teaching when they were supposed to be teaching. The teachers did not shut down the schools. The Governor did. It wasn't even a county decision, the state closed schools.

Many of my co-workers moved to other locations during COVID because they could work remotely. No one cared as long as they were showing up on the Zoom calls and turning in their work. The only issues came from the times that they were required to come to the office, and they objected because they would have to travel back.[/quote]

No but they advocated for them to remain closed much longer than they needed to (after wide availability of vaccines and data from other open areas)

FCPS never ever accepts responsibility and commits to learning and doing better. It would make a world of difference if they would.[/quote]

Teachers were back in school less than 2 months after the vaccine was introduced to the world. Calm down, it was almost 6 years ago. [/quote]

Oh gosh did you lose that much math instruction? September 2021 was more than six months after the vaccine was available to teachers and just about four years ago. You are a great example of why in-person learning matters.[/quote]
