[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Priority #1 is getting rid of quarantines. 
For me, priority #2 is staffing up special ed and support staff. They are so burned out - and gaps there will make it hard to catch kids up. 
#3 is ensuring the kids that missed all or part of K and 1st can read - however that happens. 
#4 is encouraging kids that missed all or part of junior/senior year to enroll in college or finish HS if they dropped out. [/quote]

These are good priorities. Regarding #4, my kids are in ES (OP here) but this is something I worry about for my neighborhood and community a lot. We live close to our MS, and there are real challenges there. Because my kids aren't that age I don't know what kind of outreach is currently being done. I know that our school worked hard to connect with families that were checked out during virtual school this year, and for example this year's summer programs are seeking to keep this kids and families connected and supported. I assume similar efforts are being made at the MS/HS level, but perhaps people with kids at that level can speak to this?[/quote]
