There are 10 kids, so then two extra staff are required. There is no extra money.
You’re an a$$.

Now, in OCTOBER, they want to start implementing new rules and regulations for schools to start managing.
WTF. Is learning at all a focus for this group?! (No.)
If it was up to the council, schools would still be closed. does anyone doubt this?

Perhaps write your council member. I know I have. I realize it did nothing, per usual.

Council is a bunch of unprofessional wackos in my opinion who shouldn’t be given any actual power. You know why? Because you know that saying with great power comes great responsibility? Well guess who has ZERO responsibility for absolutely anything in this city? The mayor suddenly looks like the only adult in the room.

“Charter networks have more leeway, with the council saying each can decide how many eligible virtual learners to accommodate, though each network must cap it at no less than 3 percent of its student body.”
How can each charter be forced to accommodate at least 3 percent of its student body in a whole new virtual environment?
Frankly I hate the Council and think they have no ability to manage schools.
What? What if there aren’t even 3% who want this? Are they giving schools money for this??

What freakin’ jokes. If anything serves to deter the notion of ending mayoral control for an elected board, this absurd record should be it.
You know the mayor could do all those things without councils help. It doesn’t work the same the other way
Way to miss the g-dm point!

Wait, the cap for DCPS is less than 1.5% based on these numbers. Where on earth did the charter 3% come from?
