“#Staten Island principal gives up on de Blasio’s learning plan<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Tottenville High School is giving up on Mayor de Blasio\u2019s blended learning plan, saying it will nix in-person classes and go 100% remote.<\/p>\n

Gina Battista, principal of the 3,500-student Staten Island campus, sent a letter to parents on Saturday blaming her defiant decision on a teacher shortage.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo execute the original plan of blended and remote learning, Tottenville High School would need an excess of additional teachers that is just not presently available,\u201d Battista wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have no choice but to implement virtual learning classrooms with in-person supervision,\u201d Battista wrote, meaning kids can log on to classes while sitting in school.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe outcome was never our intention, as our goal was to return to the classroom with in-person instruction at the beginning of this school year. We understand that students want to return to their daily school routine and as a community we are all heartbroken.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mayor de Blasio and Chancellor Richard Carranza have been grapp<\/a>ling for months with a shortage of thousands of teachers needed for both online and smaller, social<\/a>ly-distanced in-person classes. They have promised to bring on an army of office workers with teaching licenses, subs and graduate students to fill the gap.<\/p>\n

But as late as Friday, de Blasio refused to give a number of teachers needed before in-person classes for grades K-12 start next week.<\/p>\n

Staten Island City Councilman Joe Borrelli, who tweeted the letter, told The Post:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mayor and chancellor knew about this problem for months and couldn\u2019t put it together. They left Tottenville high and dry.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cThis is one of the largest schools in the city and I am sure we are only seeing problems here first that will trickle to other schools.\u201d<\/p>\n

One DOE insider said at least at least a dozen other schools in the system have also gone rogue \u2014 and scheduled all remote classes.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
