[quote=Anonymous]I didn't read all of the answers. OP, did you not learn anything during remote schooling? Actual instructional time per subject can be measured in minutes per day. The rest is fluff, downtime, transitions, and behavior management. Private schools do more with less because they use time more efficiently (in general, I'm sure there are exceptions). My kid's private had recess twice a day, PE 3 times a week, art and music twice a week, daily full hour of Hebrew and Judiacs, and closed for every Jewish holiday you could shake a stick at. But the classes were small, the kids attentive during instruction, and the teachers could get through lessons efficiently and the kids could (mostly) work well independently. Now we homeschool for middle school. We are done with everything in 2-3 hours and spend the rest of the day outside or doing activities. It's a huge mistake to equate time spent in school with amount of material covered. [/quote]
