Distance Learning
(One teacher’s perspective)
Do you like distance learning?
It really is quite concerning.
Teachers don’t love distance learning.
Their stomachs are always churning.
There seems to be many voices,
Telling us of different choices.
Everyone wants what’s best,
But we are, oh, so stressed.
Staying at home I’d prefer,
Or back in-person as we were.
Is hybrid really the way to go?
It might be but, I don’t know.
There seems to be a lot of rules
And, we need to learn new tools.
In the morning we love to greet,
All our students on the MEET.
“Mute your mic. Camera on.”
“Please sit down. Now he’s gone.”
It is always quite the feat,
To get everyone on a MEET.
You know we all must sanitize,
Not sure what to do otherwise.
Lesson planning is quite hard.
Some we’ve had to disregard.
We still might have to video,
But we never want the status quo.
Teachers want their students back.
Parents are ready to fill their pack.
We all know this could multiply
If we don’t start to unify.
Please keep teachers in your thoughts.
Some are feeling quite distraught.

To all who supported me and believed in me as a school board member, I will continue to always do my best for all students at Upper Lake Unified School District.
In these difficult times and limitations with COVID-19, I remain proud, confident and very appreciative of the leader Dr. Annous, and the leadership of principals Annie, Mike and Stephanie who help to make the educational process for our students challenging, engaging and successful!
All employees at ULUSD have worked tirelessly to keep the schools safe for the students to learn. From all the teachers, office staff, leadership staff, the school bus drivers to the cafeteria workers to those who keep the classrooms sanitary for our students. You all have made this happen to keep our school open for students. Thank you!
I will make your children my first priority always! ULUSD continues to shine!
Our children, our future!
