[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a few years now we’ve been talking about children who have extensive absences from school. This has come up with regard to DCPS passing and graduation rates, but the circumstances apply to many school districts. The kids who are no-showing for distance learning are, by and large, the same children who had 20-30 absences during in-person learning. It’s not distance learning that’s causing this. Rather, these families face issues like trauma, poor parental supervision, teens needing to work to supplement income, etc. I know many are searching for reasons to blame school systems and teachers for the challenges of distance learning. But this is not unique to online school at all.[/quote] +1 Very well said and all sadly quite true. I don’t think this is solely about distance learning or being cautious about COVID. It goes way beyond that.[/quote]
