[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For me, it's not about school accommodations. It's about whether it's safe under general restrictions. I had planned to opt for in person for my own kids, but at this point, we're not close to that being safe.

-everyone in masks. Consequences for not keeping them on.
-social distancing strongly encouraged, but not "required at all times." For example, spread kids out, 2 kids at a table instead of 4. If we need to keep them 6 feet apart at all times, we cannot safely open because we cannot do that. I measured my classroom and I can have 4-6 students using those guidelines. Certainly not 15, the limit that was suggested, which is my current class anyway.
-PPE and cleaning supplies guaranteed (not reliant on PTA)

I have no problem wiping down my classroom myself; I do that regularly anyway, but I need to be assured that the supplies are going to be provided.  If MCPS cant provide them because they're too in demand, then we're not in a place where we can safely open school buildings.  I dont like that any more than any other parent, but it's where we are.[/quote]

Do you teach an age where kids stay with one teacher all day?  Because as a high school teacher, I don’t see how I can reasonably wipe down my classroom between groups of students while simultaneously making sure that everyone is going the right way on the one directional hallways and observing social distancing in the lines for the bathrooms, and using the one directional hallways to move to my next classroom (if my next class is next door the current flowchart has me walking down the hallway to the down stairwell, then walking the whole perimeter of the building to an up stairway to get there).
