Close Marks
[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Without an endgame plan, why close them? What is the plan to reopen? They close them, they’re out the rest of the school year. At this point it would do more to restrict airline and train travel domestically. [/quote] BFD the schools can close for a year and there will be no effect on students knowledge.[/quote] That might be true for your kid and my kid, my many of my students experience serious “summer slide”. It’s not just the economically disadvantaged kids either. [/quote] I have taught for 20+ years in both high and low income schools. Every year, most kids (I'd put it at about 85%+) come back each fall having forgotten 2-4 months of material, dropping in their reading and math levels. We could solve this super easily by having year round schools, but parents won't have it. [/quote] Because life is about more than textbooks.[/quote]
