Anyone else think @volusiaschools is trying its hardest not to close a school before Impasse meeting??? I mean that would sorta prove @VUEUnion point that it wasnt safe to open face to face... but maybe Im just grumpy...

Volusia School Board meetings are reopening to the public. School started two weeks ago, prompting many to wonder why the board meetings were closed because of social distancing concerns when students and staff were back in school with masks on.

In 1st period today we were greeted with green crystallized cleaning fluid on desks and chairs being eaten away at by disinfectant. 🤮 Is this what you want in our classrooms? Is this safe for us? @Idarite @JamieMichele6 @CarlPersis @RubenColonVCS @bycassidy @VUEPresident
Hearing rumors that VOL live lessons will be delayed due to not all students having credentials... anyone confirm @VCSTeacher @VUEUnion ... but I mean they all have schedules right??

Here's a fun challenge... 4 board members are educators... 1 has mentioned he'd be willing to sub... Each of them try teaching 1 day as the teacher of the Hybrid model w/ in person and Live students @RubenColonVCS @JamieMichele6 @Idarite @CarlPersis @LindaLCuthbert @VCSTeacher

Challenge rules: Must create the lessons yourself...must follow the teachers schedule...must teach the standards... Any takers?

VOL says your not behind... but lets think about this... Students in VOL now have the least time of any district to complete Sem 1... If they are tired of waiting and go back to B&M they are 2 weeks behind... Congrats @volusiaschools for partial truths...

A column I wrote about our current teaching situation was published today. This was a tough one to write. I had several pages of notes that I had to condense to the required word count, which meant a lot I wanted to say was left out. news-journalonline.com/story… – at Daytona Beach, FL

David Finkle knows what real teaching looks like. We need research-based methods, not another idea created by those furthest from the classroom! @bycassidy @VCSTeacher @andrewsparfea @DLFinkle

We have received word that teachers at University High School were asked to quarantine after possibly being exposed to someone who tested positive for COVID, yet this school is NOT listed on the dashboard. @volusiaschools, was this another “error”?
I know the number of students in my childs elementary school online learning class grew after the first week. I hate that I have to guess these things because my kid really wants to go back to school, but it is just not time yet. Maybe one day I will be able to make that decision

Just an oversight... hearing also that a large group of students at Taylor Middle High are being asked to quarantine...

.@bycassidy so maybe the statement that all students had schedules wasnt 100% correct... or maybe they are just really slow at communicating to parents...
