    Alright, I need someone to give it to me straight. What are we thinking for Monday re staffing? Please tell me my kids will be in school..

100% chance they will be in school early in the week. Later in the week, who knows. [b]Depends how bad it goes w/ substitutes.[/b]

There are hardly any subs this year. Maybe if all the whining parents on DCUM stopped complaining and signed up to be subs instead, the schools wouldn't have staff shortages and would be able to stay in-person.[/quote]

Maybe we should have spent our COVID relief money on increasing substitute pay/adding actual attractive recruitment bonuses instead of blowing it on a VLP program that serves a tiny fragment of the APS community. Unfortunately Duran decided virtual was going to be *the* solution to COVID early on and didn’t bother allocating extra reserves to staffing in-person.

Did you see subs make $18/hour before taxes? That is pitiful. We pay our college sitter $23/hour cash to watch 2 kids. APS is not offering realistic market rate for what it would take to get qualified adults to sub in a classroom right now. [/quote]
