Health and science experts from Anthony Fauci to the CDC say schools should be open.But many of the country's most politically powerful teachers unions continue to move the goalposts, constantly adding new demands before they'll agree to go back to in-person teaching.Visit Business Insider's homepage for more storiesAll over the US, teachers unions are signaling that they simply don't want to teach in-person until the pandemic is over.
Take for example Fairfax, Virginia, where the bad-faith tactics of the union — operating more like a politically-powerful special interest group — are on full display. that would gradually resume in-person learning in Fairfax public schools. The plan was modest, offering students a hybrid model of virtual and in-person learning, beginning with just two days a week in an actual school building, and additional safety measures for staff and students.
Failing that, the FEA called for schooling to be fully-remote through the end of the 2020-21 school year. That would mean a full year-and-a-half for Fairfax kids to be out of school, with nothing resembling a pledge from the teachers union that in-person instruction would resume in September 2021.in the vaccination priority line, ahead of the private and parochial teachers who had been teaching in-person for months.
But now the union says Fairfax teachers will still not return to school until the students are vaccinated., and that even with mass vaccinations a zero-spread of the virus is virtually impossible, the unions ought to be upfront with parents and students enduring utterly ineffective virtual learning and say what their actions show.
The teachers' unions don't want their members to come back to school until COVID is completely eradicated. Period.
