| I have a children at Deal and Wilson. According to their reports attendance was much higher today at Deal than Wilson. WaPo story suggests low attendance reason for going virtual at Wilson. |
| I expect teachers online and teaching for every class. |

| DS had only 1 teacher present today. The other three were out. He’s a senior. |
| School wasn't canceled, it was moved online. Just as good as real school, according to the teachers union. So every teacher should be sitting online for the entire class period, instructing. |
+1. Or at least available online during the regular class hours for extra help, tutoring, etc. |
I hope you spend your entire day watching and report back. I imagine it will be the same level of instruction delivered the day before winter break that every hs student has had for decades |

Feel free to attend your kids classes. And come back with a detailed report. |
| Why not end school a day early? What is happening on the last day? |
Not it’s not. Different students. Different staff. Different impact by COVID. |
| Is anyone’s kid actually attending zoom classes at Wilson? This is such a joke. Why not just call it a day off? |
|
Yes, and attendance is being taken. Please notify your attendance counselor if your student is not present.

Except for the 7th grade, I guess. |
Exactly. Virtual class is fine. Nice to say goodbye to teachers and classmates before winter break. |
