[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Janney is not fully open for any grades. K and first only go 2.5 hrs/ day (let’s not call it “half days” since it’s not even that) and I know 5th only goes 2 2.5 hour sessions/week. I understand 2nd grade was not able to offer slots to everyone who wants it. To add insult to injury, the number of live instructional time has plummeted and my child now basically has two days/week with barely any class time. 
Meanwhile, I understand that both Murch and Lafayette (two schools with larger school populations) are able to offer 4 days/week to anyone who wants it.  Janney leadership gets defensive and doesn’t want to get into why Janney isn’t able to do the same. [/quote]

Lafayette offered spots to a very large majority, but not all who want it. There is also a fair amount of learning that is still happening virtually but in the school. It’s a huge difference to be in the school or not, but the actual IPL for some grades may not be too different. [/quote]

WRONG - the only learning happening virtually are the specials, and this is a result of the DCPS cohorting rules.  If you are IPL, you are getting live teaching for the core academic instruction.  The small handful of kids remaining virtual are taught by all virtual teachers.  Get your facts straight.  [/quote]
