Mine is asking to only go 2 days and sign in virtually the other two days. The teachers were discussing today and don’t know how the schedule will look.

Many do know that Noonan is very difficult to work with and keeps changing plans and making announcements without filling in staff. We don’t know how this has affected the board. Today is another example when he announced everyone will return 5 days a week after spring break and told them it is not another “pivot.” That’s exactly what it is to families and staff. He is not consistent and is terrible at communicating. The long videos are worse and he is constantly changing plans on staff and students after he said he would not.
!! Is that teachers coming back 5 days/ week after spring break or all students returning 5 days a week. That seems at odds with CDC recommendations!
Teachers have been working 5 days per week. All of the students. New schedules for all. Did he not tell the community?
seriously???? that is great news. It has definitely not been announced. I would expect it to be all over the falls church city parents for schools facebook page, and its not.

Lawrence Webb didn’t actually move?? I thought he and his partner bought a house in Springfield where is is more affordable?
He did! It just was an odd thing to be a longtime elected official, the only black elected official and then to move outside of the jurisdiction.
Why is that odd? He and his partner found a house they wanted and it was outside the 2.2 square foot City of Falls Church.
I think the abuse the school board has taken on the renaming process and school closures has taken a toll. They were getting crazy death threats by people not even from Falls Church over the school renaming debate. These are NOT professional politicians. This is more like community service. It's not surprising someone wanted to step down and get out of that mess.
