OSSTF District 1

Some school boards are abandoning virtual schools during the pandemic. Instead, they are putting cameras in the classrooms, leaving educators to deal with stude...nts in-class and online at the same time. Hybrid learning is NOT good for students or educators. Money must be allocated so that there can be dedicated educators for each in-person and online class - not a mix of both. Educators want to give every student the attention and support they need. #OSSTF #OntEdReality #Onted #SafetyForAll #OnPoli
