[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Look you need to stop looking at a Facebook parent group as if they have any power, they can’t make up any conditions of employment but to answer your question, no I do not trust all my fellow staff to be safe and wear masks faithfully. Plenty of teachers are living life as usual, traveling, lax with masks. They’re the ones least worried about going back but yeah we all have to work with them even when we are really careful.[/quote]

Correct. I teach with a team of much younger teachers and they are taking risks with travel and going out that make me extremely uncomfortable. I don’t feel lie I can work closely with them with their behavior and doing so puts mr at risk. Not to mention the kids aspect.[/quote]

[b]I'm a parent and I don't trust the other families. So many are traveling, allowing kids into each others homes to hang out unmasked. These are the ones who will be in school. Assume the careful ones will stay virtual.[/b] [/quote]

+1 Another parent concurring. Some of the behaviors I am seeing with other families makes me very worried about the safety of reopening schools...as in, it won't be safe.[/quote]

Exact same experience.  People who think it's "safe" to open schools under current conditions also lack appropriate judgement in other areas of COVID risk assessment.[/quote]
 
but that does  also include some teachers like young childless colleague who somehow “podded” with multiple housemates, her extended family, her boyfriend and had multiple family members test + the last couple months. Went to weddings and vacation. Yeah, I’m not enthused about working in close proximity and shared spaces with people that lax when I spent 10 months being really safe. And they will be in rooms all day with your kids. But they were most enthusiastic about reopening whenever so you felt they were “better” teachers. [/quote]
