[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid loves DL. He always complained to me about the kids in class who misbehaved and occupied the teacher's time. Now those kids either don't log on turn on their cameras. He says that school is good now. No wasted time. They also don't spend a lot of time in small groups doing busy work waiting for the teacher to meet with their group. He logs on three times a week for his small group time. The other two days, he can work on his classwork offline. I think the teachers are just getting back to teaching the material instead of the three-ring circus. The PITA kids don't show up and waste class time. He doesn't want to go back this year.[/quote]

Same here. My kids actually are learning better with DL too.[/quote]

And? What's your point? Curriculum is going to be further slowed and expectations lowered to accommodate the students you're writing off. It sounds like the pandemic has been a wonderful educational boon for you and you'll hate to see it go...but the bill is coming due.[/quote]

-Distance learning is a disaster for all kids!
-It's not a disaster for my kid.
-It's not a disaster for my kid either.
-It will be a disaster for your kids too, you egotistical hater![/quote]

Yes, DL has been a district-wide disaster.[/quote]

You know, it's possible to believe that distance learning has been a disaster for many kids, or most kids, without insisting that it has been a disaster for each and every student in MCPS without exception.[/quote]

It's saying the same thing. [b]If it were a disaster for "many/most kids", then it's a district-wide disaster.[/b] Just because some or many kids are thriving doesn't change that.[/quote]
But it has not been a disaster for most kids.
More than usual are failing but not most.
