They're seeing student and parent engagement fall off a cliff, and can't do much about it. They had nearly zero time to prep for this and the schools are all quite worried (not unreasonably) about being sued over equal-access laws so are ambivalent about introducing "new" material anyway, so much of the instruction's kinda worthless unless the teachers are ignoring their districts' directions. Meanwhile lots of the teachers are at home with... their own kids, who are trying to do remote learning, and they're trying to keep their kids' engagement from dropping off, while also teaching a rapidly-dwindling set of students almost none of whom are still trying or even "showing up", at this point.
So mostly, shame is absent and their self-respect is fine, thanks.
