So a teacher tests positive. Do they quarantine for 14 days? Are those sick days? Who pays for them? Will they still be required to teach while in quarantine? #COVID19

If there’s one thing I am certain about in all the uncertainty is that teachers will give their all for their students this fall.

March: Teachers are so amazing April: Teachers are so amazing May: Teachers are so amazing June: Teachers are so amazing July: Teachers are expendable and need to pack into crowded rooms that will serve as COVID hot spots Still July: Also there are no safety regulations

Admin, when teachers know you have their back, there isn't much they won't do or at least try. Teachers, the same is true of students.

For schools that are reopening, can we try to include the following * have classes outdoors or in larger spaces like auditorium * more recess outdoors * lunch outside if possible * get students moving, even if it’s standing by desk doing gonoodle * keep specials in schedule

Admin, once school plans & back up plans are in place, make sure your priority is the support & morale of your staff. There has never been a time when it is more important. It should be your main focus for the entire school year.

For ‘20-21, we are ALL 1st year teachers, counselors, principals, assistant principals, & superintendents. None of us have ever experienced what we are going to endure & accomplish this year. We are all in this TOGETHER. We’ll be our best. #edchat #LeadUpChat #LNCPride #nced

Students need words of affirmation, but this fall teachers, staff, and admin are all going to need them. So, focus on building strong relationships and building each other up. It is going to take a team effort to build a positive school culture.

A message from Mr. Perkins regarding school opening in August. All 3 school systems in Madison County will start with remote learning for all students.

There are more leaders in a school than just on the administrative team. Recognize and utilize the brilliance of the whole staff.
