L.A. Board of Education approves agreement with union for structured online teaching. Critics say it needlessly shortens the traditional school day.
that will restore structure to the academic schedule while also allowing for an online school day that is shorter than the traditional one.
Objections to the agreement fell mainly into two categories — the length of the teacher-led school day and lack of parental input. The agreement establishes a school day running on Tuesday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 2:15 p.m., along with an overall teacher work day of six hours. Monday is a shorter day — to allow for teacher planning, a common practice before the pandemic.
“Instructional time, where students can connect with their teacher, is the most valuable resource the district has, but LAUSD is signing away over 7 million instructional hours. This is a bad deal for students, and every board member should vote no,” said Seth Litt, executive director of the local advocacy group Parent Revolution.
