[quote=Anonymous]“The only reason they have moving to this new plan is because SOLs aren’t waived. They need 4 days of instruction to even attempt the SOLs. Anyone agree?“ Soooo, on one hand you say kids get shortchanged with this, but on the other you admit the kids need more isntruction to keep up with SOLs. See the problem? Our kids are going to be sooooooo behind other kids that had 4-5 days of school a week starting in September. Parents can not effectively homeschool 3 days a week all year, and full time DL all year is nuts. Too many families need support. Full time DL works fine for us, but I’m not stupid enough to think I’m in a typical situation. Almost every single family I know cannot make this work. The only ones that can have either one child, or multiples with a stay at home spouse and lots of money. It’s a huge problem. Something has to give. I think DL will be fine for mine even if it is a concurrent approach, might even be better because kids struggling at home will have some support from the teacher a coup of times a week, and it will improve the class as a whole.[/quote]
