[quote=Anonymous][quote]And -- especially if your family has resources -- give a little so that schools can focus on the kids that need it. If you have computers for your kids, and home internet, and adults still working, and the space for everyone to work from home, that doesn't mean things aren't still hard, but if you can put off that one extra email to the teacher that isn't strictly necessary, then your kid's teacher will have that little bit of extra time to think about how to find resources for kids who don't have everything they need. If you have some cash you can send to funds that are getting school supplies, or helping with technology, or even to a food bank, this is the time to dig in and be kind.[quote] Happy to send money and have done so. And I don't intend to be rude to any teachers, but frankly, even though other kids may be worse off, the kid who I am most responsible for and responsible to first is mine. I let compliance with his 504 plan slack in the spring, but don't intend to delay ensuring compliance if I don't see it this school year. Things are hard, for sure, but the school needs to do this for him.[/quote]
