“Consider that educators, parents and students in this province are hanging by their fingertips to make it through until March Break… We are very much opposed to cancelling March Break,” said @etfopresident during his interview with @cristina_CP24. #onted #onpoli

Ontario: we follow the science

Everyone, basically: here is some science.

Ontario: No not THAT science, different science.

E,b: Here is more science.

O: Sorry today’s press conference is no longer happening.

To Ontario’s education workers, who have been toiling away, exhausted, with no support from their government, and who were subjected again today to absurd accusations by the Minister who should be their greatest champion...

THANK YOU. We appreciate you.

Minister of Education Feb 3rd: "Be absolutely assured that the new safety protocols will be in place... they have been in place".

CMOH Jan 29: "...the rapid testing may not be available by that date (Feb 10th)".

[Sam Hammond @SLAR2023]

The Minister and the CMOH were asked 3 times today, and numerous times over the past few weeks, about what threshold, metrics, they were using to determine if schools could be opened and/or closed. Still waiting for the answer!

[Ms @coolthingsin5B]

The comments... lol

[Dale @DaleV73]

I don't know how you can stand in front of a podium, call the new COVID-19 variants "extremely contagious," yet still think it's okay to have kids in classes of 30, less than 2m apart.

[Amsterdam Blonde @1StarAtaTyme]

A rare, accidental admission from Lecce, that in class learning is best. The tweet has since been deleted. The Minister of Education retracted his statement about the benefits of being in class. The Minister of EDUCATION.

It’s time to go gradeless.

[See you on Bluesky @MsCarterGPS]

If we are really concerned about kids mental health, why are we assigning grades right now? Is it worth it in elementary? Feeling frustrated by this process. I would rather write a feedback and encouragement letter and let them know they are more than a mark. Now isn’t the time.

[Megan From @megan_from]

Frankly, this is hard.

We need a new Ontario government.

"Um, we miscounted how many vaccinations have been completed."

Doug: "WHAT?!"

"Also, our Comms team tipped on our hand on the doctor bullying."

Doug: "Are effing kidding me?!"

Lecce: "I know! Let's reopen schools with no notice! That'll distract everyone!"

*Doug hugs Lecce*

DECLARATION:

I am a classroom teacher.

I have been advocating for schools to reopen when it is safe for students and staff to return.

I apologize to @fordnation for my glaring conflict of interest in wanting to keep COVID out of schools and students safe.
