[quote=Anonymous]OK, seriously, if this pandemic has taught us anything it is that most kids can learn in 1-2 hours per day what they spend 5+ hours in a normal in-person school day teaching. Sure there may be "soft" benefits to all that time in person with other kids, socializing, etc. But I cannot believe that taking one afternoon off per week will have any negative impact on academics. But it would provide time one afternoon per week for parents to supplement with outside instruction, whether that is remedial or advanced. Or have a bit of a breather before sports and other after-school activities. If your kids are too young to be flexible I'm sure after care would be available. Win win win for everyone. Bring it on.
