[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lol I bet everybody on here complaining about virtual back to school night are just fine with working from home.

Hypocrites.  [/quote]

Right? But they’ll shriek “THAT’S DIFFERENT!!” or make the age-old DCUM claim that they’ve been back in person for years (actually true for, charitably, 20% of them). No, it isn’t different, Becky.[/quote]

Er, it's different because the kids and teacher aren't working from home.  Parents want to understand the experience their child is having every day.[/quote]

Do you need to be physically sitting in your child’s classroom to “understand their experience”? Our school has multiple separate events to meet the teacher, see the classroom, etc. I find BTSN to be tedious, especially after your kid has been at the school for more than one year.[/quote]

DP. Yes, BTSN is important. There’s a reason it is a tradition! You get to see the classroom, meet the teacher, hear from the principal, meet other parents. I’m surprised anyone needs this explained. If your school does other events at the beginning of the year that overlap, maybe consider consolidating? In person events really are essential for a school community. I remember how great it was that our DCPS did in person BTSN in fall 2021. [/quote]
