According to this then DCPS is back just not back like you’d like. [/quote]

Wrong. Some DCPS schools are attempting to return (though none are 5 days a week, full time with teachers in the classroom b/c teachers are still refusing to return, thanks to the terrible agreement Bowser negotiated with the WTU, which includes Term 4).

Other schools have never opened and will never open this year, including School Without Walls HS. Wilson HS lets kids come to one class per week in-person. One class. Others have CARES classrooms that are just distance learning in the building. NO teachers in the room.

All of them are still taking Wednesdays off, even though CDC guidance has said there is no need for the hygiene theater of "deep cleaning" which at schools that haven't had students there really makes no sense.

It's a failure of leadership from the mayor right on down to every principal and administrator who has spent the year running out the clock rather than really trying to get kids back in classrooms.[/quote]

Wrong again and your refusal to return is old news.

Wednesday are not off for teachers - it is a workdays designed by DCPS. DCPS has done nothing to make it a student ipl or DL work day. I walked by my kids school today and saw teachers (gasp) working w kids outside. Gasp.

It’s because at our school we respect and don’t trash teachers.  [/quote]

This is falling on deaf ears. Literally so many of these clowns truly believe Wednesday is a free day. If only a teachers job just consisted of live teaching but the reality is it doesn’t and never will.

I’m sorry people hate Wednesdays but I love it, I finally have enough time to plan for my self contained class and write IEPs at school time.
Once Wednesdays are back to normal one thing I have learned is I’ll NEVER bring work home again and request ‘admin premium’ for any time beyond what I have.

Ps. Wednesdays aren’t deep cleaning, sometimes it’s the only cleaning lol. You think COVID has really changed DCPS’ habits....[/quote]
