Hey @ericadamsfornyc, IF ONLY we were prepared to pivot to remote for a day. Oh wait, we are!
I’m sure you’ll be sending teachers and students to school tomorrow despite the storm.
But hey you can surprise me.
I am obsessed with this.
Day #269 of David Tennant as a Fennec Fox 🦊 @neilhimself #DailyFennecDavid
ALT Little fennec fox looking up with his ears back and pointed, his eyes widened and little nose in the air. He's on the alert! He means business! I just wanna boop his wittle nose!
ALT David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor looking upwards in alarm. I can't remember which episode of Doctor Who this is but he's definitely on a mission and you know he's about to do some running soon. He too means business and just like his Fennec Twin..I also want to boop his wittle nose!

The teacher resignation crisis has illuminated several key issues. Teachers need: 1) time to eat lunch, 2) reduced workload, 3) appropriate compensation, 4) restroom breaks, 5) autonomy, 6) a voice in policy-making, 7) quality #PD, 8) respect. What else? #edchat #iteachmath

A friend just texted to ask why there hasn’t been anything about NYC school attendance or student walk-outs in @nytimes local ed. reporting, and I choked on my coffee.

Skedula outage not just an academic problem. One admin says it's making contact tracing "a nightmare" b/c Skedula is where many HSs store period-by-period attendance data, which they need to determine which kids were exposed to a COVID+ classmate + need rapid tests.

So the @NYCSchools MIGHT make a remote option ONLy because of public pressure. Not science, not data, not how many children and extended community they’ve infected over the last two weeks. So let’s keep up the pressure for remote option and increased safety measures 1/

Hey NYC education reporters! Here are some headlines waiting to be articles:
The mayor promised to test 20% of kids: Here’s how many are really getting tested.
The DOE spent millions on subpar air filters: why?
These kids got Covid at school: Here are their stories.

Excellent source.🙏 Of note:
*…just over half of the $3 billion in aid was categorized as “other,” providing no insight into how the funds were allocated.*

*In the absence of a centralized and detailed federal tracking system, the monitoring of relief funds flowing to the nation’s more than 13,000 school districts has largely been left to
states.*

The disaster of #NYCDOE schools since New Years: I took an in school PCR test 1/4. I got my result NOW, 1/10. I went to work 4 full days before getting my test back. Imagine if it had been positive and your kids were in my class! #COVID @DOEChancellor
