[QUOTE="Steve@TF, post: 16478123, member: 40308"] my mother is an administrator at a local high school and my sister is a teacher. the union sent surveys to the teachers about going back. the teachers overwhelmingly voted to "stay safe at home". they also refused to go to the EMPTY classroom to teach from there. the district said they have better internet and more resources. teachers said nope, im good at home in my pjs. they also [i]refused[/i] to work their normal 8-3 schedule that the district wanted to do. how many of you, working from home, can tell your boss you want your normal salary but only want to work 60-70% of your work schedule? lol. now they are only teaching 4 days a week. from 9-2. and no homework. good thing is they are online with the kids via zoom all day now. unlike last semester where they would zoom for an hour or so, two days a week. at least my kids elementary school is. they also have a bunch of good apps up and running to use for class. the main LAUSD program, "schoolology" was overwhelmed yesterday and not working well. but everything else is. its not better than in class learning though. one good thing though is im right here to smack him upside the head when he's not on task. instead of getting notes constantly from the teacher about him goofing off and being distracted etc... :confused: his teacher last year worked great with them. his new teacher (3rd grade) seems to be going a little crazy trying to keep order. im sitting here on my chromebook, 15 feet away, listening to her constantly scolding kids. she's been teaching for 28 years and is supposed to be one of the best (teaches gifted kids) there are teachers who want to go back to in class teaching. like my mothers good friend who teaches honors english does. but it seems the majority are happy getting paid to chill at home and put in less work. some even argued about not being allowed to wear PJs while teaching. smh. one dumbass guy got in trouble for teaching while shirtless.
