They’re not missing, it’s just different. And, yes, after hearing stories of how COVID has affected people and not being able to fully grasp the long term damage it can do, I prefer we find options to keep everyone healthy. Schools will close again if they open as normal in the fall as soon as teachers & students start getting sick... better to plan on and improve distance learning than have people get very sick and potentially die.

No, they're missing.

COVID is not the only health or public-health outcome, and "no school" is not an option that keeps everyone healthy.[/quote]

+1. The fixation on Covid is short-sighted. And DL is not school. By offering it, school district is not fulfilling its mission and teachers are not fully doing their jobs. They are providing a bandaid. That was understandable when everybody was caught flat footed by the pandemic in March (thanks to the Trump administration), but it cannot be a long-term plan. [/quote]
