I don't see why if a class has to quarantine that they can't go virtual. Why have all of these iPads and computers if you can't use them as needed.

It's not eating cake. It's part of endemic classroom management, and not sustaining more learning loss.

I'd guess this is the big challenge APS needs to figure out.  If an entire class needs to quarantine, like an elementary school homeroom, they can probably fairly easily switch to virtual for that timeframe.  The real question is what will happen to a student who has to quarantine either because they have covid or were identified as a close contact of someone with covid.  Will there be any sort of virtual teaching available to them or will those kids essentially miss two weeks of school?

This is the major outstanding issue that APS needs to address that will have huge repercussions.  It's also why they are hopefully going to have every possible safety precaution in place including masks, air filters, ventilation, outside lunch, and the works to keep staff and students as healthy as possible.[/quote]
