So silly that someone thinks an "independent" school isn't filled with Democrats.

They paid me double my previous job.
Most of these kids had parents who worked for Pixar or Apple or some money-syphoning bank.
I got in some trouble for disappearing under a nearby bridge to smoke on my break. I learned of this spot from the security guard and the maintenance worker. Both black of of course.
You weren’t ever a public school teacher. I was. You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about. First of all, “It’s much harder to control an online 35 kid classroom than a real one.” What? Lol.
But let me explain how online teaching requires fewer teachers.
If you have 3 teachers hired by a district to teach junior English let’s say for in-person teaching, then provided enrollment remains pretty consistent, you’ll have to maintain those 3 teachers.
However, going online means one or at most 2 teachers can record the same curriculum and provide it to the same cohort of students. And since extracurriculars will be lost in this online brave new world, the district can justify heaping that 3rd teacher’s grading load onto the other two remaining teachers. Voila! That’s how it would work.
You make some truly unreal claims.

And private schools are conservative in conservative communities and liberal in liberal communities/large urban areas. A lot of you are speaking from tremendous ignorance on this topic.
The past ~100 posts for the most part have nothing to do with the COVID-19 discussion, so I've closed this thread. I've asked several times that discussion in this area focus on the pandemic, and lately the discussion spirals off topic into topics (class inequalities is a good example from last night) that belong in the politics area. It wasn't until fairly recently this started happening, but now it's regularly occurring. With everything going on, I think it's important that we provide an area to discuss COVID-19 outside of the politics sub-forum, but if these political, off-topic tangents continue, all future discussion of the topic will be redirected there. I don't want that to happen, but at this point, I'm tired of asking. If it was a single user causing the problem, we'd remove him or her from the discussion, but it's not. The main reason this is an issue is I'm not going to ask our moderating staff to help moderate political discussion - especially when it occurs outside the area we have reserved for that discussion.
Anyone who wants to discuss COVID-19 outside the politics area is free to start a new thread in this forum, but everyone who participates needs to stay on topic and with light political implications only. If it gets beyond that or is not directly related to the pandemic, it belongs in the sub-forum. If you find yourself not being able to discuss this without veering off-topic and you are unwilling to post in the politics area, then I ask that you sit this one out. Don't ruin this discussion for everyone by continuing to ignore this directive.
