“COVID is a big problem in our community. We are going to pretend that planning engaging lessons will solve it.” There’s the email.

So, at this time, the point is that as the season changes from one into another let us be mindful of the fact that students should earnestly strive for attendance and achievement goals despite our changing health and global climate. To this end, perhaps we all would be helpful to enable one another and each other in maintaining impactful and meaningful lessons so we may all learn from one another, well.

Be well and engaged and responsive and recall that support systems flow outward to all who are in need of only by asking for helpful solutions.



How’d I do? I think the “educator” author is trying to convey that as we enter flu season and Covid continues, prepare accordingly and as always, adhere to attendance requirements.


I think this is even worse! Frankly I think the message itself is mainly fluff and unnecessary though


PP quoted an this is typical edu-speak/word salad/unclear writing at its worst.

I’d hate to have to translate this gobbledygook into 7 languages to send out to all “stakeholders.”

I like to maintain my anonymity. It is a large, urban public school district in the northeast. Not DCPS.

Grammarly corrected below

October presents us with the leaves changing, and the weather becoming cooler. The weather could impact attendance based on trend data in our district. However great the challenge, we can change the landscape by placing a stronger emphasis on attendance and pushing for engaging lessons from our educators. While creating and maintaining a healthy and safe learning environment will entice our students to be in school daily."

"As your leader in this work, I am also committed and confident that together we will win and our students will excel academically when in school daily."

It is remarkable how much these school officials are pressed to avoid directly mentioning COVID.

am I too petty?
