[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone think this will be mandatory? My kids don’t need it. We have supplemented and they are working above grade. I want my kids to have camps, sports, vacations and all of the things that they missed out on last summer vs sitting in a hot classroom in masks doing remedial work. Have all students take a test and offer to only those who need it. [/quote]

"OUR KIDS ARE BEHIND!"

[someone mentions school during the summer]

"NO NOT LIKE THAT!"[/quote]

Basically. If is hysterical the frenzy that so many here have whipped themselves up into over school not educating their kids, DL doesn’t work, the learning loss is tremendous. “Poor kids and minoritized groups HAVE to be in because they’re suffering learning loss!” Oh but even schools might then move to year round all of a sudden the privileged people who need the pool and summer travel don’t care again.

This is why you’ve all been consistently called out on using lower income kids and Black and brown kids to get YOUR kids in the buildings. It was always disingenuous and this just is further proof. What might help a lot of the highest needs students is going to be absolutely protested by wealthy parents who won’t give up the pool. [/quote]

...unless, of course, different posters are making these different, and obviously inconsistent, arguments. Or you can just say “See you contradicted yourself, I win!” as if you are arguing with a single person on the interwebs. But you are not.

Pools should not come before schools. [/quote]

Or course many of them are the same. They want schools open now for their kids and closed in the summer when they want to travel and do the pool. They didn’t care about marginalized students before which is why they dropped any pretense of caring the second summer was threatened with the possibility of year round school. But they still want their kids in the building tomorrow many of them. [/quote]
