[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have seen exactly ZERO teachers speak at the schoolboard meeting in favor or returning to school. Most people with a career who are passionate about what they do for a living would advocate for much less. Teachers seem quite happy sitting on their asses. No you're not doing a good job, no more than a surgeon can direct a patient over zoom to preform their own operation. Its a complete and utter failure and it is now no longer any mystery whatsoever why American kids are lagging behind in education. [/quote] I’m assuming you are homeschooling since you think teachers are useless...right?[/quote] My kids go to private, 5 days a week, in person. Our private Catholic K-8 school is 200 yards from a FCPS elementary that has been vacant for almost a year now. My wife and I are both FCPS K-12 grads, we moved here for the school and still hope to one day send them back to that now vacant school. But the prospect of that happening is growing smaller every day. [/quote] Okay, well bye! I don’t know why you are here if your kids don’t go to FCPS. Mine do and their teachers are incredible. Leadership....whew...[/quote] Like I said, we want our kids to go to FCPS. We moved here for FCPS. Both my wife and I are FCPS K-12 grades. We didn't send our kids this year because why in gods name would we make a five year old go through virtual Kindergarten when there was another option available to us? We hope to go back to FCPS because we think when open FCPS provide a better education then private. We value diversity and community. But right now FCPS is providing nothing more then a portal for teachers to play youtube clips through. [/quote] You say you think FCPS provides a better education, but you have 0 respect for the people who would be delivering that education. [/quote] Right now, no I do not. I have yet to see a single concerted effort lead by staff to reopen schools. Until I see otherwise that's not only my opinion but the opinion of quite a bit of the general public. [/quote] Then, keep your kids in private. You make no sense. You want staff to organize to prove to you that they are working instead of working? If you don’t like FCPS, you have the option to continue in private.[/quote] Yes, I would expect teachers to change the tone of their union if they don't like what their union is saying, that's how unions work. Yes it is extra work, yes it is hard. But if you aren't willing to put in the work then you don't get to abscond blame.[/quote] I’m not a teacher, which I mentioned. I think you sound deranged. Please stay in private.[/quote] Agreed. It’s nice your kids benefit from private. I’d like my kids teachers focused on them and not “fighting the man.” We’ve been in FCPS a lonnnnng time. It’s Gatehouse. [/quote]
