[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who's going to teach summer school for most children??[/quote]

The teachers who are currently refusing to do their jobs, ie all of them. They’re paid a yearly salary, right? They can work an entire year just like everyone else.[/quote]
No, they have ten month contracts and are furloughed for two months without pay. They will not teach without compensation. Additionally, they are not contracted to work during the summer and you couldn't force them to work, even for extra pay. It would have to be voluntary and paid at an agreed upon rate. My district has optional summer school and our summer compensation is much higher than our usual rate.[/quote]

Ha ha.

THIS will differentiate the conservative trolls from the people who really care about reopening schools for the kids.

The DeVos types will never agree to pay teachers fair compensation to teach over the summer.
Those who really care about kids will.

So any poster here who starts up about opening schools, just ask them if they’re willing to use state or federal funds to pay teachers 25% of their salary to teach over the summer.

If they say no, you know they care about damaging public schools more than they care about kids.[/quote]
