@mickiedumont @utlowell495 @beth_kontos How ridiculously punitive is this? THOUSANDS of professionals in other industries (software, banking, finance) are working from home. So there's that. AND the obvious: educators are remote for a reason - health concerns for self or the family they live with & care for.
