[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Folks I’m a DCPS elementary teacher and please know that outdoor lunch is 1000x better than our crowded, very noisy cafeteria, even on a cold day. Classroom lunch is fine on the freezing days. The kids truly are fine! There is no child abuse taking place. They enjoy their time outside. Truly, it’s okay.[/quote] The teachers know about these trade-offs. A lot of thought goes into the decision and sometimes the kids do eat inside if it is well below freezing. Also a couple of times this week recess was inside and lunch outside, so lunch was the only time in the day that the kids were outside. Also for those kids sitting on concrete we were offered to provide a cushion or something to sit on, so you could do that. We declined. My daughter usually sits on a brick wall. I really wouldn't worry too much about this parents. On the upside you may be getting spared a ten day isolation period with no school.[/quote]
