Weekly thread. Last week, my thread got lots of attention. Thank you to everyone who shared my thoughts. We returned to in person classes this week. No further cases that would keep staff or students out of school. Overall, it was a great week and it was nice to be back. /1
As predicted, not all of our students returned. Some have sports commitments they don’t want to miss out on, some have medical concerns, some simply don’t want to be forced to self isolate again. The unpredictable nature of this pandemic is weighing greatly on our students. /2
It was a roller coaster for me, too. I got a chance to golf Monday, which was great. Tuesday, I was exhausted. Wednesday, I crashed. I knew it was coming, but taking care of myself always seems to come last. I was flat out for two days - no COVID symptoms, but 💯 related. /3
I’ve missed more school this year than any other year in my career. I’ve been on isolation twice. Forced to stay home for symptoms that I would normally set to the side and work through. I’ve had 5 tests - one because @CMOH_Alberta asked us to, 2 from symptoms, 2 from exposure /4
This week, @jkenney introduced restrictions in “hot spot” areas. I’m afraid it’s not enough. If the legislature can’t sit in person, schools should not be open. Period. I’m sick and tired of the way our government denies the reality in our schools. Weekly rant over. #abed #ableg
