[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually really love your kids. -a teacher[/quote]

And yet you called out today so that my child, who had an in person slot, will DL all year.  You really love my kid who is not just not learning but loosing ground in skills? Cause I feel right now like you don't and like I am on my own. Like the OP said (or I think she said - it was too long) - we are not all in this together,  We are all on our own and we better start acting like it.[/quote]

Teachers don't give a crap about our SN kids. That's undeniable after today's strike to protest the plan for our kids to have a fighting chance at FAPE.

So what are you going to do about it? Your sh!tbag teacher went on strike while your kid is losing ground, so you need to document your kid's teacher's poor performance. Email the Principal with all the ways your teacher has been failing your child. Every area that your child isn't up to grade level is evidence of your child not receiving FAPE and the teacher's lack of performance. Every single time your kid's teacher screws up or your kid can't do something, you email the Principal to expose the teacher's failings. Your kid can't do XYZ? Email the Principal to document that the teacher failed to teach XYZ. Give no mercy. It's what all SN parents need to do now.[/quote]

Oh my God. I am a teacher who taught yesterday. I’m sorry it’s been so awful for you your child. But you are laying scorn on the wrong doorstep. Please don’t add to all the hate. I know you are deeply disappointed. But the teachers who were out today feel threatened and/or feel the plan was ineffective. Just hold on. We need something better and want ALL kids to have in person ASAP. POTUS, the Mayor AND the union have all made mistakes that have gotten us into this mess. Teacher bashing may feel good in the moment but it is very harmful to trust, morale and progress in the future. Most of us care deeply about your child.[/quote]

I’m glad you feel that way. But you also need to understand how deeply hurt and desperate parents of SN kids are right now. [/quote]

You make it sounds like ALL SN kids would have been going back. They wouldn’t have. This plan literally sacrificed the vast majority of the kids for the lucky few. I wish DCPS would have come up with a better way to accommodate the kids who needed it most but this plan wasn’t it. [/quote]
