This makes no sense. My only take away is you have an axe to grind.

Yet it is reality. No one ever said reality has to make sense.

Well, I agree it makes no sense, and is likely just fake news being propagated by someone with a grudge.

People like you are the reason why many teachers will tell prospective teachers to stay far away from this corrupted and abusive profession. Way to exemplify the bullying of teacher. You truly are a POS.

I just don't understand why mcea can't just take their millions and use it to protect teachers and the integrity of education. We don't need politics, bully sympathizing g, teacher blaming especially when the system is systematically broken with demanded unpaid overtime, crime and violence in the classroom, grade inflation, etc etc. These are real issues teachers need support with. The union always goes on and on about support but fairly to be specific. It's high time to specify what is meant by no support and unbalanced power structures.

Your words just prove my point dear. Thank you for being the clear example of what happens if a teacher tries to communicate for educating students in mcps.

You really need to take up this grudge with your therapist.

No. MCPS administration and school board kept the schools closed. Granted, it's easy for them (and you) to scapegoat the teacher's union as the reason, but ultimately the MCEA had zero authority to shut down schools. The teachers were as divided as the public on the shutdown.

True. Teachers are not a monolith but assume all teachers share the same POV on all things.

There were many teachers who felt we should have been back in the classroom earlier. I will say though, that I think they were outnumbered the teachers who were germaphobes and fearful of even the whiff of infection risk.

Zzzzzzzz. Wake me when you join the rest of the grownups in 2023.

Your lame attempt at edginess doesnt even make sense. Congratulations!

The union has known about this sex harasser for years. Dozens of teachers were harassed. Why did the union still endorse the same BOE incumbents through its Apple Ballot?

The union didn't endorse any incumbents last year.

This discussion is whether MCEA did its due diligence to members who reported sexual harassment and abuse at FMS.

Does anyone on this thread actually know what MCEA did, and whether there were actions they could have taken and did not?

This is an honest question, by the way. Does a union have any power here?

It’d be amazing in general if we could all move on from the covid debate. However, the people mentioned above refuse to. It’s gonna be 2067 and they will mention their kids aren’t successful bc of 2020. It’s 2023. Time to move on. You have a PHD and your 15 year old can’t read, but it’s the schools fault for something that happened three years ago. Sure.

You seem to be one of the people who can't move on.

DP, but that’s what you took from that? Wow.

Here is someone else who can't move on.

No, sorry. Your attempt at deflection isn’t working. DP

Jesus. Even if you counted school buildings (no, schools were never closed, just bc you moronically wish something was true doesn’t make it so), not two years. Less than a year and a half. Sorry you needed babysitting longer than that.

Oh, only a year and a half. That makes it completely different...

Just admit you didn’t do your job as a parent while expecting everyone else to do the heavy lifting. The county is over the dawns, the reesmans, the Margerys of the world.

I meant to respond to this. +1000
Those people are utter morons. So done with their incessant griping.

+2,000. They’re going to be in their 90s in their nursing homes, sitting in Depends in their wheelchairs croaking “MCEAAAA! EEEEEEVIIIL TEEEEACCCHEEERRRS CLOOOOOSED SCHOOOOLLLLS!” :roll:
