[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at a diverse Capitol Hill DCPS and there are 2 kids who haven't shown up for K once. They're on the teacher's schedule for testing (no idea if they showed up to that) so I don't think they've officially switched to a different school or anything, but they have literally never logged in for class AFAIK. A handful of other kids are rarely there. I don't know the situations of these kids, so it could be a mix of falling through the cracks entirely and hyper-involved homeschooling parents who are giving their kids a much better education. I worry a lot for the kids though and also for what classes are going to be like when kids do get back. There's always a range of abilities, but if they keep with the normal social promotion policy, it is going to be *insane* next year. [/quote]

DCUM "sky is falling" crowd needs to pick a side. Either the kids not showing up are emblematic of school system shedding students or the DL environment is such a drain on parents hat kids should not be required to attend. Unless the idea is that UMC parents should be able to opt out because their kids are disturbing their WFH schedules but poor kids should not be given that option.  [/quote]
