Even the nuttiest nutters I know are sending kids back.  [/quote]
My concern is that, since their kids are back, those folks will push for unreasonable measures that are inconsistent with APS providing actual education.[/quote]

"unreasonable measures?"

What do you consider unreasonable?

On in person days my K-2 kid is on her iPad about 80-90% of the day.  Either teachers are

-- delivering classes virtually because they are afraid of exposure despite being classified as "in person" with no health issues, 
--"team teaching" so one teacher is teaching 30+ kids in two classrooms at the same time so each teacher only has to prep and teach half as much, 
--teaching in person, but the room is set up so awkwardly that kids can't see the whiteboard, or
-- playing a prerecorded video of themselves teaching instead of actually teaching in person, despite being physically present in the classroom.

All of this is happening daily.  It all needs to stop.[/quote]

That stinks. My K kid does a lot of work on paper on in person days. The ipad comes home at 90% charge. From what he says, he just uses it for Dreambox and Lexia during choice time and maybe for his art special, not sure if she comes in person. I know PE is in person in the gym because I heard all about the little crab scooter things. They are as close to "real" school as possible. [/quote]

Update - came home today with 99% charge on the ipad and told me the art teacher comes and teaches in the room. Somehow I'm still surprised how different the experience is in different schools operating under the same district-wide guidance. [/quote]

The internet was down for a large portion of the day. [/quote]
