[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like smoke and mirror BS so the lazy teachers (not the dedicated ones) don't have to teach. [/quote]

Take it up with MSDE. They approved asynchronous days. [/quote]

It was always a bad idea, but this in particular was not what they had in mind. MSDE needs to change this. Districts like MCPS can't be trusted with virtual options.[/quote]

This is exactly what they had in mind. Up to 8 virtual days can be repurposed from inclement weather. 3 of those virtual days can be asynchronous. I think you'll find many more in support if this than those against. Very few want to keep adding on in-person days in June. [/quote]

Virtual days were intended for snow days when students could not make it to schools. [b]Not for days when teachers didn't want to teach[/b].[/quote]

It’s still not being used for that purpose so you don’t have to worry.

When a teacher —even an ill one— can unilaterally decide they want a particular day to be asynchronous, I’ll back your complaint.[/quote]

That's what just happened. Given that this is coming out from MCEA first, it's pretty clear it was the union's decision to have a bogus "asynchronous" day rather than using April 10 or 22nd as an instructional day.[/quote]

The union doesn’t decide that. Hilarious that you think it can.[/quote]

Of course they did. MCEA wasn't going to agree to add back an instructional day.[/quote]
