[quote=Anonymous]I have an introvert and an extrovert and both prefer DL for different reasons.

The introvert has ADHD and prefers DL because less executive function is involved. The computer keeps her on task. They use Schoology. It's a Godsend for ADHD kids. Also, because she's home there is no "I forgot to bring" this book or that book or this assignment, etc... It's done wondered for her grades. She's in 7th but takes Algebra I Honors and a language which will go on her HS transcript and my kid who usually gets marked down for missing assignments has not missed 1 all year and had all As both quarters.

The extrovert likes DL because she gets to spend more time with her friends. She spends most lunch breaks with them (even on cold days they bundle up and head outside, masked to sit distanced and socialize). This allows her to be with friends she is closest to and not just friends who have her same period lunch. She also enjoys being home and eating during class, sitting in her pajamas, seeing us all day. DL also allows her to sleep in longer.

Both of my kids have asked if they could stay DL forever. Sorry kids! I wouldn't mind but unless FCPS offers it we have no way to do it. My kids are independent so having them home does not bother me in the least.  My husband and I are 100% working from home and our kids don't keep us from getting work done.
