Winning turtle wax — It seems like a lot of parents are excited about a possible RTS, but as a teacher, if the board approves the plan, I would feel very much like I had won a consolation prize I never wanted. I would only see, at most, one fifth of my students in person, and I would be trying to figure out how to do this concurrent nonsense. So, it’s just hard to look forward to going back to the building.

Not for nothing - but that’s why I feel strongly that they have to get in this year - to work out those kinks for the fall.

I was really hoping I wouldn’t have to do concurrent by then, or at least, if I did, I could do it properly since FCPS would have more time to upgrade their tech. Yeah, I guess that’s being optimistic.

I don’t know what the status of teacher vaccination is so my guess is that they might delay it until all teachers are vaccinated two times - if a delay is needed. But maybe the proposed schedule still has everyone vaccinated in time? I’m not sure. My husband will have his two vaccines before his students arrive back in the proposed schedule.

I haven’t received my first shot yet and my teammate hasn’t either.

I'm going to say.. kind of. The Board will approve the plan, but not the start dates. Start dates will be pushed back until...who knows. But I bet there is no school in February.
