[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know it’s getting old to keep pointing to Covid, but I genuinely think this particular cohort—mostly the current 7th graders, also likely some current 6th and 8th graders—missed a key window of social development after spending a full year in virtual school (for today’s 7th graders, that meant the second half of 1st grade and almost all of 2nd). At my DC’s elementary school, the administration could not wait for that 6th grade group to move on because their collective behavior was the worst they’d seen, and that same cohort came back noticeably more challenging in 3rd grade than they had been in 1st. I don’t have a student at Carson, but at another FCPS middle school, horseplay seems to be pretty common. This isn’t to excuse the behavior, just to offer a possible explanation for why it seems to be increasing.[/quote] Nope. Get a new excuse. Next![/quote] We will get a new excuse when you stop using the online materials from virtual learning. [/quote] I have two kids at Carson, almost all of their work is on paper. Nobody is using online materials from 5 years ago. Your snowflake should have recovered from Covid right now.[/quote] Carson is unique in that sense - my older child went there and I was impressed with their paper use. However, my other child goes to Franklin and both English and History are majority digital. Science has done digital, some paper. [/quote]
