My middle schooler is delighted and will occupy herself with mindless activities, just like she did all Thanksgiving break…

I’m a teacher. If a student emailed me questions today about a test, I’d answer them and send any helpful resources.

We already know distance learning doesn’t work. It’s kind of you to keep working so hard to try to make up for Central office failures, but it can’t be enough with students and teachers in the same room.

Distance learning works fine for kids whose parents have raised them to be self-motivated. The kids that require spoon-feeding from an in-person teacher are the ones who aren’t successful during distance learning and will have a hard time being successful ITRW.
