[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this article accurate?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/alexandria-city-public-schools-will-return-hundreds-of-students-with-disabilities-to-classrooms-through-the-end-of-2020/2020/10/22/dbb284c2-13d4-11eb-bc10-40b25382f1be_story.html[/quote]

This part is not accurate.

“It adds general-education pre-kindergarteners through fifth-graders in January 2021, and general-education sixth-graders, seventh-graders and eighth-graders in February.”

There is NO approved plan to bring back any additional students beyond the designated disability/ELL population.  The reporter got it wrong.[/quote]

This comment is correct and the video of the meeting will make it clear.  [/quote]

This article makes the point except I think Hutchings was not really proposing in person school for large populations even though Monday’s release suggested he was:  https://www.alxnow.com/2020/10/22/school-board-shelves-plan-to-reopen-schools-in-2021-students-with-disabilities-transitioning-back-next-month/[/quote]

It’s almost as though he was intentionally presenting something totally unappealing and worthless, knowing the board would have no choice but to reject it outright and remain all virtual. There ARE alternatives, such as bringing back k-2.  Why aren’t they even being discussed or considered?  Heck, even bringing back just kindergarten next month seems feasible.  Total lack of vision or creativity.  All virtual for all students does not need to be a forgone conclusion.[/quote]
