[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is just based on my experience of course.  First, when it became obvious that the pandemic would be a crisis well into the fall, the school system clearly communicated that online school would continue until January and be evaluated at that time.  There was no discussion of hybrid schools etc. when it was obvious that would not happen in our area.

Second, I am happy with the rigor of the curriculum as well as the various discussions school counselors have had with the kids about feelings and coping with  difficulties.  Third, I am happy with [b]the social opportunities the kids have had facilitated by the school.[/b]  I’m happy with how much clear communication we have received.  My kids go to two different schools and both have made the best of a bad situation.  Kudos to our kids and our administration![/quote]
Could you elaborate on those?[/quote]

Lunch bunch, putting kids in breakout rooms where they could just socialize, letting them use zoom to have little meetups together.  Really little things that help.  The kids also haven’t been as overloaded with onerous and pointless work like I am hearing about from friends in DC and VA.  It seems like when the ambitions for teleschool are more modest it works better for everybody.[/quote]
