Readers react to San Marcos CISD's reopening plan

Dear Editor,

I am writing this letter to you as a resident of San Marcos and a proud parent of a rising 2nd grader at Hernandez Elementary School. My family and I watched the school board meeting on July 20 and participated in the Town Hall meeting on July 28 where the plans for reopening were reviewed and parent and teacher questions were addressed. Overall, we are very pleased with the district’s plan to delay the start of school followed with remote learning for all students once the school year begins. These decisions are clearly in the best interest of the children in our community.

But what about the teachers? Under the current plan for Phase 2, teachers would be required to teach from their empty classrooms.
