[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, my kids are in advanced classes in MCPS where the students are serious and the teachers have high standards. They work hard and are most definitely not falling behind - the teachers wouldn’t let them, nor their middle-class parents!

I don’t understand this whining that DL is so much worse than in person. For labs or sports or some arts, perhaps, but not for math, most science classes, languages, English or social studies. My son’s high school paid for an expensive virtual lab platform and he does chemistry experiments there, which in the circumstances we need to find acceptable. That’s his ONLY class where his experience is different! All the others are the same. He signed up for digital art this year, so even that’s not a problem.

Are you saying that he is mostly getting the same quality and amount of instructions that he would have if the school was in person. I am seeing my middle school kid’s grades falling behind. He says it is  hard to focus in an online class and due to little two way interaction with teachers and peers. [/quote]
