[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Loft and Duran are focusing 10000% of their thoughts on the maximum distancing. infuriating!!

they need to take a new vote from families and we need to take their power away NOW.  they are not capable!! [/quote]

They aren't addressing why in the world they didn't have a plan B for this 3ft guidance before now.  We all knew this was coming.  Think creatively, this is insane[/quote]
I think this is the plan B, bring more kids in.[/quote]

Of course this is plan B.  And it's a logical one.  I don't agree that "we all knew" 3 foot guidance was coming - at least not until recently.  And they [i]should [/i]be focused on the maximum safety measures they can provide.  We are hardly out of COVID woods yet.

What may seem simple from the parents' perspective is way more multi-faceted and complicated from the school system of 23,000 students perspective.  Transportation, class and teacher assignments, capacity issues in cafeterias and other spaces, etc.  And it can't just turn on a dime.  By the time plans can be thoughtfully made and implemented, we'll be into the fourth quarter anyway.  I'd rather implement existing plans (which just began, by the way) as well as possible, learn and make appropriate adjustments, and better prepare for "normal" return to school in the fall.[/quote]

But here is the thing - no one is asking them to turn on a dime. They’ve had A YEAR TO MAKE PLANS. Every school system in backwoods American can make it work, but we can’t? Shameful. [/quote]
