[quote=Anonymous]I think one problem is that we parents are having to implement at home decisions made by DCPS, and we understand very well the impact of these decisions because we live them every day.

In math, we have to stay on top of our student every single night to make sure s/he does not get behind, even for a single assignment, ever, even if s/he  is unwell.  Weekly quizzes, so have to make sure s/he goes to her teacher’s office hours, sometimes twice a week, plus tutoring on the side.

It’s the compressed schedule, but also the fact that my student went for a year without math.

This also has a negative impact on science classes.  Figuring density seems like it would be pretty easy, but maybe not so automatic if you haven’t had math in a year.  So more office hours tutoring needed, but no time.

All of this creates tension at home, and it doesn’t help student self image.

I understand this was maybe okay for the distance-learning year, but we’re half way through the second year of this, so not a “knee-jerk” reaction.
