Jan 4: close schools b/c of threatened health system capacity, but school has always been safe.
Jan 17: health system capacity much worse and very little has been done to make schools safer...so let's reopen school.
I want kids in school, but the logic is difficult to follow.
@ms_simsimma I'm so sorry this is happening you you. You're a phenomenal teacher who goes above and beyond for your students. You're constantly reinventing the wheel to ensure your students are learning about relevant, real, and ongoing world and systemic issues.
Next yearโs PDSB timetable means that with no daily prep every other week, teachers will be given no paid time to phone parents, mark student work, prepare lessons, review IEPs, collaborate with colleagues, differentiate their instruction and more. This will hurt student learning
Make sure you check this out of you haven't already! @ms_simsimma is the best option by far! She means what she says, gets stuff done, a fantastic teacher, a fierce advocate, and she is a wonderful human being!
