I would like clarification on who at the school district level will receive the additional stipend? Working at the District level in the Nutrition Program throughout the Covid-19 outbreak in the office to support our kitchens and also in procuring produce and other needed items I am wondering if people in our positions will also be included or if this is only for the individuals working at the school sites themselves. Our Child Nutrition Kitchens out at the schools could not function without us here in the office to support them, order food, procure fresh produce, hire individuals, staff schools that were hit by absences because of the virus etc.
I am very grateful for the legislature’s efforts toward education. It is a very difficult year for everyone and this funding will help with the extra stress on our school staffs caused by the pandemic. I am disappointed that the language excludes the teachers in districts who are working just as hard in an online only situation. Changing your entire curriculum and instruction into an online only format is both difficult and time consuming. If Salt Lake District teachers are excluded from this bonus, how is that different from teachers who are teaching distance only classes in other districts? Or teachers who are teaching only face to face? This shows that the legislature values teachers in some districts over teachers in other districts. Excluding any teachers in our state Just because of where they are employed is segregating. All teachers in our state deserve and have earned both the bonus and your respect.
