[quote=Anonymous]If classes were small or if we were going to stay in A/B hybrid, I could see lay offs. But with class sizes at 30+ and parents clamoring for FT in person instruction, there’s no way that my district is going to try to shed staff. If anything, they are really worried about how to stop the slow seepage of veteran teachers and specialists leaving from turning into a hemorrhage. March was a turning point for many staff. Some put in for early retirement. Others resigned effective immediately. DH is in that latter group. He was teaching as a third career after retiring from the military and then a few years in the private sector. Returning to the private sector made more sense for our family financially and healthwise. His school has not been able to fill his position. There’s daily subs who sometimes work 4-5 days in a row, but no one is asking to stay longer and at this point, the weeks of lesson plans he left for his course have run out so they really need someone who knows the skills and how to teach them. The district has always struggled with finding and retaining teachers for this area of study even as they kept pushing expanding enrollment.[/quote]
