[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's pretty much the same in APS, except we're blaming it on bus routes and changed schedules. People can throw money at tents but many are on backorder and the good ones need are pricey. [/quote]

There’s 10 weeks left in the school year. Tents aren’t happening. Neither are any magical 5 day plans. [/quote]

Absolutely right.  Any parent who thinks ACPS will have a 5 day plan in the fall is deluding themselves.  [/quote]
Fall yes. This year no. [/quote]

There won't be five day in person in the fall.  And their certainly won't be five day in person with teachers in the room in the fall.  Hutchings has already said this.   The will & creativity to get there may exist in other districts but it doesn't exist in ACPS.  That was proven when they were forced by the governor to do hybrid when they so obviously were not prepared for it.

And the schools are severely overcrowded with shoddy HVAC systems (blame which falls squarely with former superintendents, school board members and city councils not to Hutchings).  It's not like ACPS is starting from a good place in terms of space and infrastructure.

So given the lack of will & creativity from central office and the crumbling, over crowded buildings, things will not be "normal" for a long time.

Instead of insisting that there will be five days in the fall, better to look the inaction of ACPS last year and the realities of ACPS infrastructure and make plans for child care.
