It will be a giant waste of time.[/quote]

Yes! Because no teacher in MCPS is capable of providing instruction virtually.  Far better to follow the current MCPS plan of providing no learning at all and asking Maryland to waive the required number of instructional days.  /s[/quote]

Try to set aside your resentment of educators for a brief moment. Of course they are capable. That has no bearing on whether there is any value to virtual learning. The majority of students will receive no benefit.[/quote]

On the contrary, I was mocking your denigration of educators.  My kids have done virtual learning with MCPS during Covid and several of their teachers have done it really well.  And they’re older now, and virtual classes are no big deal. [/quote]

+1. One of my kid’s MS teachers was on medical leave for 2 weeks but didn’t want his students to fall too far behind with the sub and did 2 evening “extra help sessions” on zoom.  I listened in and the session was great-same dynamic teacher on an electronic white board.

Anyone who says virtual learning has no benefit for kids needs to go to a remedial writing and research class to learn more about  evidence and nuance and the danger of making generalizations.  [/quote]

It’s easier for mcps staff to just scream “virtual learning is bad” because doing nothing is a lot easier than trying to do something. [/quote]

If you notice they don’t show evidence of it being bad but yet in person now shows many kids failing….[/quote]
