Schools with NO airconditioning?

Tomorrow is going to be 96 without the heat index, my school has no A/C and my room only has 2 windows. Today it was 94 and they let the kids go home at 10am….but why not the teachers? Why should we suffer?

Hey sprinkles, suck it up! Be a roofer for a week and you won’t be complaining! 🙂

I’m semiserious with that. Yes it’s a terrible situation, my high school carrer was spent a-airconditioning. We never were sent home even in 100 degree heat. What’s more it was inner city and so cleanliness wasn’t always the best and the school stank. So I know how you feel.

Best I can say is freeze a couple water bottles and keep em in a cooler next to your desk so you can have a refreshing sip now and again. Might take the bite off. But don’t brown bag it, you’ll get fired.

I have the same question about school busses. I drive a bus in the afternoon’s & today it was 104 degrees. The school’s are all AC so they don’t give a rat’s rip about the busses. We as drivers set there in between school’s for 30 minutes loading up all ages, setting still in the hot sun behind glass making it hotter, then have a 1 1/2 – 2 hour drive before we get out of the seat again & let me tell you a bus is like an oven in there. I have had a thermometer in my bus before & it has got to 124 degrees setting still, but the schol doesn’t seem to care. I have had days I been so weak standing up & dizzy I had to set back down a few minutes on the step to walk & they do not even consider letting us out early. so yes I do feel for you, a child cannot possibly learn anything when they are miserable.

When our children were in public schools they were told they had to stay the entire day but had to bring water. The Principal’s office, the secretary’s office, and the teacher’s lounge had air conditioning but not the rest of the school.

I think it’s ridiculous to make students at this school stay an entire day in a hot school when the staff has A/C.

Now, how did we ever get this far in creation without an

air conditioner.

students are attending to learn what you ate gitting “paid” to

teach them.

You can ask to go home. You just won’t get paid for it.

We are all hot lady.

While most Americans are losing their homes, due to the

“flooding.” And don’t even have a “window” to open.

You should be lucky to have a home to go to “with” and air conitioner.

Tommorrow’s homework for the whole school should be for

every student to bring a can of food for the Salvation Army.

that way, you will all learn from it, and benefit from it <}:-})

if you ask me, thats not right. if the kids are allowed to leave the building becasue of intense heat, then the administration should let the entire staff and faculty go home for the day too. contrary to the belief of some people, teachers are human too. if your school let the kids go home because they felt it was a health issue but they didnt dismiss the staff, then they could have a legal situation on their hands.

Because you’re required to put a certain number of days in. I’m sorry for you, I don’t do well in that kind of heat unless there is a pool around. LOL. Hope you have plenty of fans going. Good Luck

That’s a great question. You should get a bunch of teacher’s to sign a petition against it and bring it up with the board. Those are DEFINETLY not humane conditions! Good Luck!
