[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In Fairfax County, parents had to apply for a virtual “academy” and provide medical documentation that their child could not attend in person. They will not be taught by teachers from their neighborhood school, but by teachers that are hired specifically for this virtual academy. If approved, they are locked into the virtual academy until the halfway point of the school year.

In a school system of over 180K students, there are under 1000 that have been accepted grade K-12. [/quote]
DC has one. In a school system of 51k students, hey've accepted 19 students and rejected 19.

That isn't what OP is asking for. We want something that bridges the gap to the vaccine, creates a structure for the inevitable back-and-forth to virtual for those families who prefer in-person, and maintains the belonging to their own school community.[/quote]

No. Stop being selfish. You don’t get everything catered to you. You can homeschool or do an online charter. [/quote]
And you can move to a red state for the year. Stop being selfish and risking so many lives just because you decided you need your kid in a school building.
It's kind of like that.[/quote]

It is not like that, sorry. (a) You can stay in blue DC and have your child attend a virtual schools and (b) The risks you are ignoring are the ones that don't apply to your children. That's redder than the post you are replying to.[/quote]
