[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]High risk DH has 15 days to put in his retirement papers. He’s talked to multiple people from school level admin to central office. [b]Everyone said F2F in the fall was highly unlikely[/b] and he should consider retiring after S1.[/quote]

[b]If true, this is shameful. Kids have already missed 3 months of school. That's enough. Kids need to be in school.[/b]

As for the teachers - if there's a medical reason, then MCPS will have to provide a reasonable accommodation (e.g., distance teaching). But if there's no medical reason, then people who don't want to teach in-person will either have to do so anyway, or find a different job. Teaching in-person is an essential function of the teaching job.[/quote]

It doesn't matter how long they've "missed" in-person learning. We're in the middle of a pandemic that shows no signs of abating. If it's not safe, in-person learning is not happening.  And it won't be happening until January 2021 (at the earliest). Don't you care about your kids' safety, not to mention the safety of the teachers and other personnel?[/quote]
