[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’ll get over it.[/quote]

I will, for sure. Many of the kids left behind won't though.[/quote]

They will. Generations of kids managed on far, far, far, less education. Now all of sudden a few semesters of IN-SCHOOL math and English are critical? Are we actually sending the kids down into the mines with no learning whatsoever, instead of just having them sit comfortably at home with expensive technology and a certified teacher at the other end of the Zoom?

Give me a break. You're ridiculous.

You sound more than a little bit privileged.

There will be thousands of kids who won’t have parents available to bring them snacks during the day and monitor their online progress.  They will disengage and continue to fall further behind their peers, not to mention the kids who are fortunate enough to attend private schools or schools in other countries. Some of them will never catch up academically as a result. We all know this, and implying it’s the equivalent of a hard snow that kept the kids from attending their one-room schoolhouse in Nebraska for a few weeks in 1870 won’t change the harsh reality.[/quote]
