It says choice of students actually doing the in-person learning is up to parents/guardians and doesn't specify the number of days, but districts must offer it.
It's on the docket for the education committee today.
The sponsor of this is a doctor who got written up by HHS for using her patient roles to send political mailers & solicitations (and who only escaped sanction because she’s in the party who controls the HHS). Sounds like someone who truly has the best intentions and almost sound advisers.
Yes. And the governor wore black face. And the president elect’s son traded off his father’s office to get paid. And the current President has been impeached, twice, including for inciting an insurrection.
Let’s all agree that politics is messy business that attracts folks who work well in that environment. Now. Let’s look at the merits.
You can agree with the CDC and the American Academy of Pediatrics and open schools, or you can keep them closed based on your political support from teachers associations (who do not exist and have no power).
*applause*
Most bi-partisan thing I think I have ever seen on DCUM.
Hardly.

Sounds like you are grasping desperately at straws to have the whole year off.

I know. If staffing is an issue, that is an HR problem. If teachers are told to go in, they will go in or not get paid. It would be humane of you to let them all get vaccinated first, though.
They are being vaccinated starting this week. Its happening! get everyone that first, very effective dose and let's get the show on the road.
Yeah, well you know how “well” Braband organized going back to school this semester? So far, somehow, he is making the vaccine rollout way slower and more complicated than it needs to be. I want to be able to see my seniors before they graduate. Not happy.
There is no reason that every FCPS staff member shouldn't be able to get the first dose in the next few weeks.

Sorry, that's FCPS specific and this bill is not, I realize.

If they churn through available vaccine appointments with INOVA as quickly as possible starting Saturday, I imagine every full time staff member (there are less thank 30K) could get two doses by the time they are done with the logistics and planning for reopening. That's extra true when you subtract teachers who don't want the vaccine.

She escaped sanctions because she made a mistake, apologized and immediately rectified the situation. This is not some crazy scandal.

The co-sponsor is Chap Petersen...
I don't care if the sponsor is Kermit the Frog if it gets the kids back in school.
