[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Given that kindergartners and 1st graders can't do asynchronous work on their own and can't really learn from DL, why don't they have K and 1st attend on Monday and give those teachers Friday asynchronous?  They'd be making much better use of staff and physical space.  K and 1st could then have class Monday-Wednesday with DL on Thursday.

[b]APS is not using its resources well by not using staff,[/b] buildings or buses on Mondays. [/quote]

I’m guessing you don’t have any children who are being pulled out for support/interventions. That is what is happening with staff on Mondays, in addition to teacher PD, office hours and planning. Teachers and staff are not sitting around doing nothing on Mondays. [/quote]I accounted for this.  Have asynchronous for those kids on a day other than Monday.  [/quote]

I understand that you’re trying to find a creative solution for getting more kids more time in school. Unfortunately It’s not as easy as just magically changing a whole grades asynchronous day to Friday. The specialists are currently available on Mondays. You would have to contract with them and rearrange schedules (at multiple schools even) to be available on Fridays. There’s even more administrative changes that would have to occur across an entire school. [/quote]
