[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question: do you (especially teachers) think it is immoral for parents to send kids to hybrid school now? Will you resent the kids for it?

We chose hybrid back in December expecting our district to be much more conservative. They threw out metrics and set a return date. I find the research on school transmission reassuring from a risk perspective, but i am a dues paying member and officer in my union and wonder if sending my kid in is comparable to crossing a picket line or shopping somewhere with unfair labor practices. Thoughts?[/quote]

This is a serious question? Really? A teacher would have a very low level of professionalism to hold a child accountable for the decision of the parents. [/quote]

I am a parent and I judge the teachers that are constantly complaining about returning.

In AA Co, the BOE publishes the written testimony submitted the BOE. You better believe I read each and every single letter to see if any of them were written by teachers at our local elementary school. We also monitor all of the social media posts written by teachers "complaining" about returning and shame those teachers on group texts with our friends.

The worst offenders are those teachers constantly complaining about going back, and then subsequently posting photos of unmasked dinners inside at restaurants, vacations, etc. Or at parties with large groups of unmasked people. The hypocrisy knows no bounds. Of course we screen shot those posts and also promptly shame them on group texts as well.

TEACHERS - Smile! We are watching you very closely!

I am a teacher who hasn’t done any of the things you mentioned in your post. I have been inside a store exactly six times since last March. We order online and have most things delivered. I haven’t been to a friend’s house, nor have I had anyone to my house since last March. My husband has medical conditions and health issues and my family has been so damn careful this past year.

As a teacher of elementary students, I hear over and over again about the trips out of state and out of the country that my students’ families have taken this school year. I hear about the birthday parties, travel sports, staying in hotels, going into store after store, etc. The teachers I know personally are being careful. It’s the behaviors and choices of the parents and families in the school community that have me concerned.

On social media, I see people in my community gathering together all the time (A large group of women gathered for someone’s birthday, sitting together drinking wine, pictures of families at some travel sport event in another state, etc). Many of these are the same parents shouting about returning to the physical school building.

It goes both ways.
