re: First day back as a teacher at a south LA primary school

Constantly changing process/procedures

For example: my principal had figured out a way for kids to eat. Simple bag meals for breakfast and lunch were going to be placed on carts to be handed out in the classroom. But then the director of nutrition for the parish decides she wants the kids to have hot meals. So now every student from pre-K thru 5th grade has to walk to the cafeteria and back to pick up their hot meal to eat in the classroom. All while maintaining social distance and washing their hands in the cafeteria. How many dropped plates do you think there will be? How long will it take to complete the lunch process now?

Also of note, the bathrooms at school have to be completely sanitized after each class uses them. So the ritual in primary school of eating lunch then going to the bathroom has become a scheduling nightmare.
