COVID-19 School Closure Letter from the CEA President
March 15, 2020
Dear Members,
First, thank you. Thank you for continuing to put students first and prepare for school closures.
UEA provided the following information after speaking with the state Supt. Dickson: (1) There will be no disruption in payroll for teachers and other school employees; (2) all school employees are expected to report for work on Monday. Employees unable to report for work should contact their supervisor; and (3) students will have the opportunity to continue learning.
I have been in contact with district administrations and, at this time, I have not received any information regarding employee work requirements from March 18 to March 30. We are hearing different reports from members but, for now, we must wait until Monday to learn what the district and school plans are for student instruction. What we do know is that the district has requested “all District and school personnel, including teachers, to report to work on Monday, March 16 and Tuesday, March 17 to work through logistics. Those employees who have health concerns and child care constraints on those two days should contact their supervisor”. If you are unable to attend due to either health or childcare issues AND your principal is not making appropriate accommodations, then you should contact CEA.
Members, the situation is organic, fluid and unprecedented. We are asking you to be patient; stay connected via CSD email for updates; do not take anything personally; and do not make assumptions -- other than assume everyone is doing their best.
Also, please do NOT post things on social media suggesting that time in a classroom without students is ineffective. Often we ask for more time to prepare. This could be it.
We're all in this together.
Sincerely,
Erika Bradshaw
CEA President
