[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with this somewhat as a FCPS parent. Honestly, when you consider spring break and the two weeks of online learning post spring break, I really don't see much value in going back for the 15-18 sessions ...and with testing NNAT and SOLs, I don't even think this is going to happen.

I would be MUCH happier if a plan for 5 days a week was set for the fall, though.[/quote]

IMO as an MCPS parent, if you want five days in the fall, we need to get back in some sloppy form this spring.  If we don't, there's going to be even more hand-flapping, excuse-making, and general "we don't know hooooowwww" because we will have not been in school buildings for 18 months.

My kids are in a learning hub right now, so it's likely that the return this spring will make our lives more challenging for the remainder of the school year, even while it will hopefully be better for our kids.  I'll take that trade-off if it increases the likelihood of kids being back five days a week, to something that resembles actual in-person instruction.[/quote]
