Ashlee Rezin Garcia/Sun-Times I do not understand why teachers cannot go back to their jobs in the classroom. Isn’t it their responsibility to show up to work, as so many essential workers do? I am sure medical personnel, grocery store workers, postal service employees, and the list goes on, all feel hesitant about leaving the safety of their homes to go out and earn their living. With kids doing remote learning, parents are in a stressful situation about doing their jobs outside the house. I am a parent of a special needs boy. All special education students are missing out on therapy time that they will never get back. There’s a good chance they will regress due to their daily schedule being changed. Special education students very much require a structured, educational environment in which to learn.
