Reply to comment by Realtorandy in Henrico to pay bonuses at nine schools with high teacher vacancies by CrassostreaVirginica
100% this. I am not a teacher, but one of those elusive support staff. With a ratio of 1:2,000, I can barely keep up with the paperwork, much less effect real change.
Watching teachers burn out and walk away is so worrisome. The younger teachers are seeing that their salaries don't buy much, their pensions have been eviscerated, and the political climate is toxic like never before. Who in the world would stay for 30 years? The crisis is coming like a slow-moving tidal wave and no one seems to be paying attention. People outside of education are in for a hell of an awakening. I genuinely worry for our kids, who, all corny sayings aside, really are our future.
I'm out in the next few years and it won't be soon enough. Given the shortage in my specific profession, there's a good chance they won't find anyone to fill the position.

They used to have flights to/from Toronto around 2009. I flew it once, it was on one of those small turboprops. Although I think back then Canada and the US had passport-free travel, but I might be wrong.

Should they be thanking the out of towners for putting upward pressure on home prices?

Old city hall. The inside is super pretty as well. By far my favorite building in virginia.

I fly regularly and haven't had to make a connection yet. NYC, Boston, Dallas, Tampa, Charleston, New Orleans, and an upcoming to Vegas all direct.

Right! I flew with my toddler recently and had liquids (milk) in excess of 3oz to feed her with. Totally permissible by TSA, I looked up all the rules before packing.
At Richmond, multiple TSA officers were questioning my reasons for having milk and lecturing me about how I should have put the milk in a clear bottle because otherwise it “takes extra time” (turned out to be a 30 second affair). When I flew home from Puerto Rico I got not of the attitude whatsoever.

Reply to comment by okcknight in Richmonders concerned about slow police response, long 911 wait times; safety departments understaffed by choicebutts
I don’t know why you’re being downvoted for being inquisitive.
Are you looking at just the portion of the budget dedicated to salary for Fire and Police, or are you looking at the entire budgets for those departments? It’s not an apples to apples comparison between the two departments.

If I’m not mistaken, when my son was 18m his nap was 1-3, though it’s now 12-2 at his current school. Also a crack of dawn kid, but he’s done great with their nap schedules!

We had a behavioral specialist guy (I think it was Bliss or some acronym similar) at our school that would come in and pull a kid out. He would talk to them, calm them down, and bring back to the class. He would also help write the pbis/behavioral supports and do daily check-ins. Of course the county decided that position wasn't working and we lost him. Suspensions and behavioral issues shot up the next year.
