[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Put the disruptive kids in virtual public school and let the well behaved kids meet in person.  Would cost virtually nothing and solve everything.[/quote]

The most disruptive kids are the ones least likely to have a place to do virtual school or the parental oversight to do it. So this would essentially mean that the most disruptive kids are the ones who aren't in school at all. Look at what happened with juvenile crime during and after the pandemic -- we don't want that.

What we actually need are alternative schools that better meet the needs of kids with serious academic deficiencies or major behavioral issues. Which would free schools to actually educate the rest of kids who want to be there and can behave in the classroom, while also providing the kids who don't want to be there and can't behave with an education that meets them where they are at. Whether that's intensive remedial work to get them back on track or vocational education or a place where they can receive mental health and probationary services.[/quote]
