[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, that's my point. [b]I don't think it is fair to screw over the preschool teachers to keep the preschools open.[/b] And clearly the preschool administrators agree, because that's why the schools are closed and they follow the FCPS schedules for snow days. Yes, the schools could technically be open, but it would screw their teachers over in terms of them having to find their own backup child care. Like I said, as much as this sucks personally to have my kid be out of school all week, I'm glad that they are doing the right thing by their teachers. Happy teachers = happy kids. [/quote]
Bizarre, how is letting someone go to work screwing them over.  [/quote]

[b]Many teachers at part-time pre-schools are not working at these jobs for the money. If the hours don't work well for their own family obligations, they won't be working at these jobs at all. The pre-schools would have a tough time getting enough teachers if the teachers can't be home for their own kids[/b].

+1  Preschool teacher here. This poster is absolutely correct. Many of us have two or more children of our own, and we would lose money if we had to pay a sitter with the amount we make hourly.
