Chapter leaders should have borough meetings if not monthly every other month to have the main issues laid out. Then top CL from each borough should have a zoom meet to analyze discuss the next steps. Then Each borough CL can zoom the members and we can organize. There has to be a transparent and easy way with social media to get to the streets in spring. Mulgrew and diblasio know most of us are whiny little pussies who prob rarely stand up to the bullies.Anon2323https://www.blogger.com/profile/12920550598769579282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-2647373382977222342020-12-04T23:36:11.589-05:002020-12-04T23:36:11.589-05:00Ok, next to impossible.

Add to that equation a severe cut to the city tax rolls and technology that allows one teacher to teach massive amounts of students at any time of day or night and the result will be as I described. I don’t intend it as a fear mongering ploy. I’m just amazed when people are moaning about Easter vacation pay when all roads lead towards massive layoffs. Hopefully, I’m wrong, but I rarely am - I am a licensed NYC principal.

It’s simply a safety issue for many families - not from sickness but from physical and psychological abuse that is now completely ignored by the deB administration and the UFT. Then there’s the complete lack of learning and worthless grades and degrees. Remote is the way to go if you're poor and want a decent education in most of NYC. If deBlasio and Mulgrew team up so remote learning isn’t offered (which may be why Mulgrew agreed to send elementary teachers in now), the home school companies and or the Charters will (they will anyway, of course). Eva will pick up thousands of students remotely. As for middle school, it’s a toss up. The elementary schools are the only schools I see relatively untouched after the pandemic is finished.

Next September, if we go back to full 5 day school with normal sizes I see major major anxiety from teachers and students when it goes back full throttle.<br /><br />I still think there will be a small remote crowd especially towards the high school level and 80% will be back in the building next September.<br /><br />Besides the 3% raise in may not much action.
