The Dominican Association of Public School Teachers (ADP) president, Xiomara Guante says public school teachers will not return to in-person classrooms until their conditions are met. “We will return to the classrooms when the teachers are vaccinated,” said Guante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guante made these statements on the program Uno M\u00e1s Uno, hosted by journalists Adalberto Grull\u00f3n and Millizen Uribe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She detailed the conditions for public school teachers returning to school: The flattening of the spread of Covid-19, that teachers receive the two doses of the Covid-19 vaccine and that classrooms are conditioned to comply with the new health protocols. She said this position was made clear during the Tuesday, 23 February 2021 meeting of the National Education Council (CNE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teachers are in the last part of the first phase of the National Vaccination Plan. This means they should be vaccinated by April if all goes as scheduled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guante indicated that the members of the National Education Council (CNED) agreed on the elaboration of a protocol for the gradual and safe return to schools, but in a conditioned manner. She was critical of those that seek schools to reopen, ignoring the protection of teachers\u2019 health. She also said that many classrooms do not have adequate hygiene to reopen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public school teachers are receiving their full wages. Most teachers are working much less if at all. The government reopened the school year in November 2020 with distance learning programs on radio, television and the Internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guante made these statements on the program Uno M\u00e1s Uno, hosted by journalists Adalberto Grull\u00f3n and Millizen Uribe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Private school advocates of the return to classrooms hope to start voluntary pilot programs in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
