[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP mentions this. As I understand it, hybrid (doing virtual 2 days and in person 2 days) is off the table.

Is that true?[/quote]

Don't know if it's off the table everywhere, but my kids' elementary school principal told us that the plans they were working on were 4 days a week in-person (with direct instruction for younger grades and "supervised virtual learning" for the older grades - I'm the OP of this thread). Wednesdays would be distant for everyone.[/quote]

Yeah from what I'm learning about a return to in-person, the staffing issues are a nightmare since if you switch to a direct learning model (one teacher for 12 kids) you end up with really large virtual-only classes. If you do concurrent you end up tying extra staff up (two teachers per class) so it becomes harder to provide ESOL/SPED services if the co-teacher is tied up in one classroom. So getting a para to babysit is just easier and cheaper. And this doesn't take into account teachers who requested ADA accommodations to telework. [/quote]
