[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good thing the OP is not making decisions for our county. Unbelievably selfish; perhaps some kids need the VA because they are immunocompromised? Only concerned about your child getting into CES instead of the well-being of many. How typical of MCPS parents. [/quote]

VA is getting far less funding than a typical school.  It is silly to cancel VA, especially now when covid is getting worse and in our schools.  It is no different than MCPS opening up another in person school to help with overcrowding.

If anything, VA needs far more funding to make it equal to other schools. [/quote]

Where is your source for VA getting far less funding?[/quote]

Keep up with what's going on as it impacts my kids.  We don't have enough staff, no activities, and don't have many other things a traditional school has.  Lower school doesn't have enough teachers to fully staff classes and its a lot of asynchronous teaching and very limited class hours.  We strictly got a computer (which all kids get) and a few useless supplies and for some classes a workbook and that's it.  The staff are trying very hard but funding/staffing is a huge issue.  But, they are doing a great job at making it work with the resources they have and we are very happy in it.  We do hope to return in person in the fall but thankful for it this year.[/quote]
