The Washington Teachers’ Union on Wednesday said they would not sign an agreement to reopen schools to in-person learning, citing rising COVID-19 rates and constantly shifting DCPS plans. The news came on the same day New York City schools decided to shut down again because of COVID-19 concerns. “We hope to return to our schools in a smart, data-driven manner that protects our students, teachers and communities from COVID-19,” said WTU 6 in a statement. “However, we can only do so when adequate protections are in place.” Insisting that “our city’s first priority must be safety,” the union said that “the only way to build safety is through communication and trust. DCPS has fallen short on these measures.” Get the latest from WTU on their Twitter feed here.  Comments are closed.
