What are your thoughts on firm deadlines for assignments? During COVID I gave them until the end of the 9-weeks without penalty. Not so sure I'll do it now that were back in class.

I think this is always a tricky question. We use Schoology and in that system you can set a Due Date and a Lock Date (no more submissions past this date). We try to set reasonable Due Dates and then set the lock date for a week later, because there’s a late penalty. However, we practice Agency and if students tell us it’ll be late in advance, with reason, they get the penalty waived. During COVID we extended the policy for additional time. It’s our opinion that no deadlines or open until the end, is both unfair to teachers to grade and for student expectation on what is acceptable at work.

While most teachers are protected by teacher unions, I feel my voice hasn’t been heard at all with my concerns of going back to school next week. Our diocese has decided on full return 5 days/ week for all 42 schools despite a recent increase in COVID in our communities. Every other school that I know of in my state is either choosing remote learning to start the year or a hybrid approach, yet that was not an option for us. Are other Catholic schools I. The same boat? Stay safe!
