[b]Then homeschool your kids that day[/b].  And, if you are a student, get back to class.[/quote]

Be careful what you wish for, as more MCPS parents are doing just that: https://www.thebanner.com/education/k-12-schools/maryland-school-enrollment-shrinking-why-UDZRSMI5FZFC7GOYWCSVUCYDR4/

[QUOTE]On top of that, far more families chose to homeschool their children after the pandemic. More than 42,000 kids now learn at home, compared to about 28,000 in 2020[/QUOTE]

If those numbers continue to go up, that will become a bigger problem for MCPS as enrollment drops lead to job cuts and budget reductions.[/quote]

Why would I care if people homeschooled?  If they are qualified, go for it.  Reality is that most homeschooling is online school.  A chunk left when they closed the virtual school to do private virtual programs.  One of my kids chose to stay virtual.  I fully support it as it keeps them out of the hospital.  I am not worried about what happens to enrollment, job cuts or budget reductions (which they need anyway, as they have plenty that is mismanaged) given MCPS has failed both my kids many times over.
