[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually don't think they were lying on the Dec form. I think they never planned to return this year and so the entire exercise was theatre. When they pivoted after political pressure at the state level, they needed to throw it into gear,. And they didn't have enough time--or the will?--to re-survey parents in a gesture that was more date-gathering than performative.

I, too, never planned to return hybrid, so I could care less about this. But it is galling that they now won't even make a waiting list for kids who want to return. [/quote]

Isn't it all just whispers on Facebook?

Can someone point me to anything official from ACPS that states :"Children may not participate in Hybrid Learning unless their parents selected this as an option in December."

That does not exist.

All I've heard is "Katie's neighbor wants to change to Hybrid Learning and I heard the principal at Polk said no!"[/quote]

Along with all the official communication that we can’t switch, I personally emailed the principal and asked if we could switch from distance to hybrid and explained why. I was told no and to read the official comms from ACPS. I also know for a fact that our kid’s school got so many angry emails and requests that they have sent multiple emails to all parents reminding them that this is ACPS’ choice, not the school’s.[/quote]

Once again, the people who have been doing the heavy lifting (principals and teachers) have to defend ACPS and Hutchings poor work and communication.  They have purposely set up an bad dynamic between the schools and the parents so they don't have to deal with the fallout from their mess.  I'm sure SB/ACPS/Hutchings are getting emails but totally different when you know people and their kids personally.  And when you care.  [/quote]

I still don't undertstand the no playground use thing. Ridiculous. I hope that policy changes at some point after return.[/quote]
