I have heard so many different things said about teachers and the pandemic, my personal opinion is it should be the teacher's decision if she or he wants to go back to the classroom it is there and their families health to consider also. I Don't think they should be forced or threatened{but opinions are like a**holes everyone has one }So please try to be civil when you post

No they do not have to go back to work but they also should not be paid. The rest of the world has to go to work or they don't get paid. Well not the rest. A whole lot of people are hiding under their bed and mooching off the backs of the working folks.
-
I guess the same should be said about clerks, nurses, doctors etc. The only thing is if they make that decision then no pay, let someone else earn the paycheck.
-
It is the teacher's union that is causing the problem about teachers going back to work.
Teachers are totally ready to take care of the kids, but not so much the unions. :bad:

We live in a small town and our teachers are not very computer savvy so they are trying to learn with our children I have respect for them for all the hard work, I guess what I was trying to say for those that it works for out of homes on the internet should be allowed to continue . And I certainly do not mean for them to not work and get paid.As far as moochers there is always the other side and dont think should be judged unless you know the whole story (just saying)

Then it sounds like they don't need to be teachers. We live in a "computer savvy" world. Kids are learning computer stuff in early grade school. I don't even know how a person could be a teacher in today's world and not know enough about computers to use one. If teachers can't teach the kids what they need to know to be ready for the world then again they do not need to be teachers.
And if you are a moocher and don't want to be judged then get off your butt and get a job. There are jobs every where. Almost every place in my town is hiring. Nobody wants to work. They want to either sit on their butt and collect welfare or get the unemployment and then collect the extra however much it is now. So yes people who actually work and have worked thru all of this nonsense have every right to "judge" the ones who sit on their butt and want everything handed to them. Get jobs! (just saying) ::) LOL

It's a lot more complicated then everyone thinks....teachers want to go back, but the issue is that kids can't get the vaccine and kids are more likely to spread it simply because there are so many and they are generally not as conscious about their actions as adults. Teachers don't mind teaching virtually, but the kids just aren't learning the same. A lot of places, in person learning just won't be the same. It's like teaching virtually but with students in the classroom - only those who want to be anyway, and lots of restrictions - 6ft apart, masks, limited movement, etc. I have a lot of respect for doctors and nurses, too, and believe they should be the first to get the vaccine, but teachers face a lot of uncontrollable risk, whereas doctors and nurses have more tools to prepare with than teachers and they aren't dealing with the volume of potential patients at once. I don't think teachers don't want to work, it's just that they prefer to do their work in safest way possible. Who doesn't?
-
It is a very personal decision because
they do not want to hurt themselves or students.
There are plenty of substitute teachers willing to
take their place.

That's interesting...generally it's the younger students who struggle more with the online learning...

Country girl do you mind if i ask what town you are in that everyone is hiring?
-
Those who don't want to go back to work are probably not real good teachers anyway or are they hmmmmmm ??? 8)

I am not telling you what town I live in. But it is not just my town. It is every where. Maybe you can share what town you live in that nothing is hiring and everything is shut down and you are all still hiding in your house. ::)
It has been all over the news all across the country that companies are hiring every where and no one will work. People are lazy! And they have figured out you can get more money drawing unemployment thanks to the government handouts. Maybe you need to pop that bubble you live in and join the ranks of reality again.
As for your kids that "won't do the work" maybe bust their butt and be the adult.
You are right about one thing the majority of the kids doing the "virtual learning" are failing.
-
I think that the teachers should go back to school, because only a small percent of the kids are getting sick from the virus, and the issue now is that the lockdown is leading to more depression and suicide amongst the kids...
-
Schools have been is session in my area since the beginning of the school year in September. I'm thankful that are teachers really want what is best for the students.
-
Teachers should be able to choose, my niece would rather go to school, but she teaches special ed and many of those kids have compromised immune systems. She has teacher friends with compromised immune systems, they will be happy to go back as soon as they get vaccinated. Everybody has opinions, but unless it is your own health then you cannot tell someone else they have to go back to school and not online. They are working very hard on the online and some teachers are doing very well at it. I think some people forget, there are also kids who do not do well even in regular school.
-
You don't know me country girl you seem to be the most critical person I have read I'm not going to even respond to you anymore as far as my bubble non of your concern, and as far as busting their but I don't believe violence teaches the proper lessons so ill raise my kids the way I feel is right don't think I asked your advice.

You don't know me either hensgirl. And I am not critical. You are a snowflake and can't handle someone not agreeing with you. And you will respond to me again. You have said over and over you won't respond to me. If you are not going to respond then grow up and don't respond. And I could not care less about your "bubble"
And spanking kids is not violence. But not teaching kids how to act is why this country is in the mess it is in.
As far as advice, I was not giving you advice. I don't care how you raise your kids. But a little FYI when you post in a public place anyone can respond to you. If you really want to "ignore" me then hit the "ignore member" button and you won't see what I post. But you won't do that because you like drama. lol

The schools have been open here as well. But I think all students have the option of remote learning if they choose to do so. I have talked to teachers and the majority of the kids doing the remote learning are failing.

They actually can. Why should teachers get a special pass? Most jobs if you do not go to work you get fired and replaced with someone who wants to do the job and is willing to show up for work.
And you are right about everyone has an opinion - but most people can't handle that. They want everyone to agree with them. But the fact is the entire country needs to be opened back up. If you are scared then stay home and find a way to support yourself from home. Don't expect a check off the backs of the working folks.
-
I also respect a teacher's decision to return back to classroom or teach remotely. My son has teachers that do both and they seem to work well in both scenarios so far.

Hensley you havent paid attention the past yr or so RE Countrygirl.She is a controversial,lying sack of dust.
Im sure by now she is trying to dig up more info on you on the internet.
She didnt post in awhile and coming out today firing the usual BS.
Maybe its that time of the month for her and she ran out of <fill in the blank>LOL!

If their area offers that option I guess it is fine. But if the schools are opened up then teachers should not be allowed to just sit at home and say Oh I will work from home and still get paid. They should either get some faith and return to the classroom or fine a telemarketing job they can do from home.
-
I don't like drama but it follows me but I guess in some ways she right I do post public but it ok I did click ignore member never paid attention before. maybe she did run out she might find me and my family on Facebook but nothing more I stay out of trouble to raise my grandkids. babysitter couple nephews work from home on direct mail and go shopping I actually lead a pretty boring life. It's plenty for me though.

My daughter in law is a middle school teacher and she has been teaching this whole school year. She is very concerned because so many kids and/or their parents test positive.

Where is their union? I don't think teachers should be forced back to school. Who wants to pickup viruses from kids.

lol Thought you were not going to respond to me any more. Talking about me is the same thing. Even if you use "she" trying to be vague. For someone who doesn't like drama you sure are full of it. Every post you make is drama. I like the way you feel the need to make sure everyone knows you "ignored me". Yeah we will see.
FYI I don't want to find you. I have not looked for you nor any one else. Unlike the physco who has admitted to trying to find me.

Then why should truck drivers go to work? Why should delivery drivers go to work and bring your crap you order online to your house? Why should grocery store workers and retail store workers go to work? Why should warehouse workers go to work? You know the people who keep this country turning. If teachers are scared to do their jobs they need to find another line of work. As far as unions go those all need to be busted and banned.

There are a few states telling the people they can get rid of their masks. I do hope the people aren't that stupid. That is dangerous.
-
This is a legitimate concern for those in the classroom and some in other businesses. These concerns for their health also brings on stress. I'm not in that situation but I try to keep myself safe and healthy. Hope things work out for everyone going thru this.
-

And I wish people were not so stupid that they thought that little piece of cloth would protect them. And before you get smart about it if you can call people stupid for not wearing a mask I can call people stupid for trying to force others to wear one. I personally don't care what you do. You worry about your face and I will worry about mine! It is not dangerous to not wear a mask. But it is totally stupid to put that much faith in a little piece of cloth.
-
The governor of N Dakota said there is NO mask mandate.
They have the 2nd highest % of cases per 100000.
That in itself should help those on the fence.
The ones that are ignorant and blind it matters nothing.
NO doubt the same ones that didnt think God or Jesus existed or knew the truth RE them.
-
I'm glad that they are allowing teachers and school staff to get the vaccine before the kids to come back to school. I also feel that the parents should not have to send the kids back if they are not comfortable with sending them.
-
I think kids need to get vaccinated also so everyone can be safe, my grand daughter is learning virtual and is doing great and catching up in her class (both of them), so it depends on the child. Let everyone get vaccinated then everyone can go back to work.
-
Most teachers have met are doing a wonderful job I just feel for them with 4 kids here on the computer on hybrid days is frazzling but they have a classroom and virtual not sure I could keep up with all that. So far we still have a choice for home or school, for example, my little ones went back but my 16-year-old flat out refuses he is terrified of getting the covid
-
Most of the kids are not failing doing virtual learning, my grand daughter is learning and improving everyday
-
Yes some kids flourish in computer environment but mine needs one on one maybe they just want someone to stand over them
-
If the teachers are considered essential service workers, then they should be vaccinated and return to work in the classroom...
-
I thought they were letting teachers influence/decide what they wanted to do. ???
-
so we just got email invite for kids to go full time im tickled pink yes sign us up please im not a very patient teacher
