As an educator, I’m shocked … that they have the backup subs and/or a replacement teacher to justify losing a teacher over this.
Isn’t there a never-ending supply of substitute teachers who are desperate for a full time job? That’s what I hear from teachers in Canada.
Not so much in the US. At least in my state, they don’t have enough subs and have to double up classes when a teacher is sick.
Same, to the extent we have a google form to fill out when we cover on or prep for compensation.
