The governor closed schools for two weeks. Individual districts have their own rules about what teachers do during this time, with some also closing for teachers and some requiring workdays. Really don’t know how there’s such discrepancy, but whatever. My district falls in the middle. Three optional workdays (yesterday, today, tomorrow with no info on what happens moving forward).
Despite guidelines from our governor and the CDC to not gather in groups of more than 50, my principal called a mandatory staff meeting on an optional workday yesterday. Yesterday afternoon the recommended number fell to ten, and this morning the principal called another meeting.
We are not being given the option to work from home, despite the state superintendent instructing local superintendents to offer this. So I stayed home and took a leave day today. I received an email about another mandatory staff meeting today, and a mandatory virtual professional development session. My thought was that I took annual leave, so I am off the clock, correct? My principal is trying to mandate that I come to the meeting and that I complete (today) the required PD on Google Classroom (my district went 1-1 three years ago...I’ve been well versed in GC).
I do not work in a union state. Who should I be talking to about this sort of thing?
