Yes. My school has a PTA meeting tonight and the best thing about this announcement is that the annoying APE mom will hopefully stop her yammering.

Oh, the APEs are already pushing for five days in person, so there will be no stopping her yammering. Sigh.

Correct. This isn't good enough for them. They want 2019 school back.

They tell the kids to not put anything on social media that they don't want to be there forever, and then they go ahead and attach their names to workplace gripes.

I think it's fine for a teacher to complain a little about concurrent learning, but I am so shocked at the way some teachers make very clear how much they hate teaching, their students, and parents on their public social media accounts. I have an acquaintance who does this and I had to mute her.

FCPS parent here, is APS not doing the insane concurrent teaching that FCPS is doing? APS plan looks so much better!!

DO THEY NOT UNDERSTAND THAT COUNTLESS TEACHERS HAVE BEEN TEACHING WITHOUT ANY VACCINE THIS ENTIRE TIME?

And every other workforce that has been in person? This makes me so insane!

But they need their full two weeks after being fully vaccinated. One might say they’re entitled.

In Person:
T/W - PK, 1st, 3rd, 5th
TH/F - K, 2nd, 4th

For 3-5 this may vary depending on your school. Some schools with high hybrid numbers in 3-5 will do 4 days of hybrid/ may need to split hybrid into a/b groups. Your school should tell you.

I thought 3-5 was just coming two days, based on the days listed above- but depending on numbers may have the teacher dancing between two rooms while also teaching virtual students, or may have a teacher just in one room while also teaching concurrently.

Why would a teacher worry about being fired? Seriously, they are untouchable in APS

The APEs must be so happy!

Per the email I think each individual school will reach out to you on that. I have one in 2nd and one in 5th, I'd love for them to be on the same days but Murphy's Law says they'll be opposite...I'll still take it!

Mine are opposite. Womp womp. But at least I'll only have to get one kid out the door at a time, and I agree, it's better than full-time DL for both!

Okay one of my kids just casually interrupted the other while in class and got shouted at so I take it back, I think opposite days are better.

I'm still refusing to get invested in the idea until I actually put my kid on a school bus and send him away.

Yeah, I hear ya. I'm going to be pissed if they roll this back yet again.

And there we have it, only took 10 minutes for someone to find something else to complain about.
