[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we went for meals pick up last week at staff at ITDS said something about the kids coming back soon. I am not sure if they just assumed because DCPS is supposed to open some classes in February ITDS will be doing the same.  I have not yet heard any dates or times frame for opening. Last I heard anything it was the "when it is safe" response they have had all year.   
I know there are issues with most of the teachers living and working in different cities, counties or states than they teach. Which apparently makes it difficult to get a vaccines in a timely manner given each has their own time line and priorities.[/quote]

Did you see the message from the Head of School this weekend? They are opening with learning pods for a small number of students staffed by the Y, with non teaching staff (counselors, leadership, building staff) and  teachers keeping up with DL lessons. Then hopefully building on that to welcome more students and trying to get their staff vaccinated.  It’s a small step but one I’ve been hoping for[/quote]

DP. I saw that. It is a small step, which I like, but I'm not quite as encouraged as you are. If ITDS sticks to the plan they had last fall starting around 1 march and filling the school from the bottom in several waves happening every 6 weeks or so , they still might not get all grades back in person before they decide it's too late in the school year to bother. I understand they are a teacher instruction school and probably are going to hold flank/not get in front of the unions, but I'll judge them more on whether they get kids back quickly once the unions finally crack.
