NYC teachers encouraged to take photos to 'document' student COVID violations
Fox News
The labor union that represents most of New York City's public school teachers is allowing educators to “document issues” regarding the city's quarantine mandate by uploading photos of violators.
UFT then linked to an online form where teachers can report quarantine rule violations by uploading information that can include up to five photos. The form also asks the teachers to include their name and personal phone number, as well as their school and its location.
"Mayor Bill de Blasio announced on Sept. 20 that students would no longer have to quarantine after a positive COVID case in their classroom as long as they were properly masked and three feet apart," the form says. "Please use this form to document any issues in your classroom related to these new quarantine guidelines, including situations where students are seated with less than three feet of distance. You may submit photos and/or describe interactions with the DOE's test and trace investigators."
