I am going to go ahead and get this started... which districts are going to start with everyone online versus waiting until the 17th? Also, what are the plans for driver/monitor pay during the 2 week delay?
Same. We are only given 2 days (6 hours each) usually. So we are going to split that down to 3 4-hour days and split our group into 3. That will keep our staff around 40 per group in a classroom. While 1 group is in class, the other 2 groups will have 2 days to work on their buses, drive routes and get help from trainers if they feel they need some extra help since they will have been off a bus since March.
In-service in class will focus a lot on sanitization protocols, what-if scenarios and I'm sure a lot of questions/answers.
I plan to release another survey for our meeting on Friday for our group to answer what their plans are as we get closer to school resuming.
Has any District decided what to do with drivers and bus Aides while schools are online only?
