There are other bathrooms open! They didn’t lock them all. Kids can walk to use other restrooms. ?? Many of you cannot identify a real problem.

Deal teacher pp- It can take me 10 minutes to find a student one to use. I have 4 minutes in between classes. Do you want your children unsupervised because we’re off in another wing of the school? Do you want your kids missing chunks of class in order to be healthy?

If the school is so dangerous that they can’t walk the hallways unsupervised maybe they should go to another school. If they have to go to the bathroom enough to consistently miss chunks of class the extra few minutes isn’t making a big difference. Some of you live to make more problems instead of identifying solutions. As a DCPS teacher I’m honestly over people like you who just complain and give no effort to find solutions

No. Bathrooms should be open and available to teachers and students. This is a basic right and essential to any public infrastructure. Punishment for misbehavior should be administrated otherwise. You are the only one defending this inane policy.

1) bring this same energy when other schools have bathrooms shut down for operational reasons EOTR. Not just bc your kids are acting foolish.

2) plenty of bathrooms in the school are open

3) clearly I’m not the only one defending this decision, or they’d have been reopened

Stop deflecting and making excuses for an inexcusable policy.

Um, there aren’t laws against what the principal at Deal is doing? Child abuse anyone?

Child abuse Lmao. What an entitled bunch of parents

I suspect you work for dcps. Your attitude about denying children access to bathrooms that all humans need for medical reasons is terrifying.

I do work for DCPS as a teacher and I also believe in Restorative Justice. When you can't use something properly and its unsafe you temporarily lose that privilege. There are plenty of other options for bathrooms at Deal and the teachers there aren't exactly militaristic. As I mentioned upthread, there is no teacher who would refuse to accommodate a student with a medical reason. Parents that have been fear mongering this thread with that example have curiously not actually told the school about their children's issues.

Now, if they never reopen the bathrooms, I would agree that is a problem. But as of now, its pretty clearly not safe so they have to keep it shut down.

How will they accomdate a student when the bathrooms are locked? I assume you mean, they will allow the student to miss class as they wander the halls looking for an open bathroom?
