A Moncton-area parent says he's resigned to his daughter being exposed to more teachers and school staff in her classroom than he considers safe during COVID-19. Vašek Vlček says his daughter is in contact every week with seven different teachers in her Grade 4 classroom. In a Nov. 26 email, Education Minister Dominic Cardy said the number of teachers and staff passing through the girl's classroom "seems excessive." "If you have seven classroom teachers who are going to be in fairly regular need of supply teachers, then reducing the number of classroom teachers is going to automatically, hopefully, reduce the number of supply teachers," he says. In an email to parent Vašek Vlček, district superintendent Gregg Ingersoll said Vlček had exceeded his right to reasonable consultation.
