[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How has Burke fared during pandemic with virtual/ hybrid learning? Are they requiring all eligible students be immunized in order to only offer in person school next school year, like Field? 
Thanks in advance![/quote]

Look on the school website or call and ask if you really want to know. Can’t compare CoVID protocols between Field and Burke because they are in different jurisdictions. DC private schools have to follow OSSE guidelines. Things are much looser in VA and MD. [/quote]

Obviously i have done that. What schools say on their web sites and lived out realities are not always in alignment.

Both schools are in DC and i was hoping to hear from current EB  parents … have already heard from Field parents i know in real life (sounds like a great school but the lack of virtual options next school year as the pandemic is ongoing gives us pause.

If things get worse I can see schools pivoting back to virtual, but I would be surprised if any school, especially a school as small as Burke and Field, offer virtual options. Concurrent teaching is terrible for everyone. If you want a virtual school for this coming year, choose a school that has always been online.

And are you applying for the school year that is about to begin? You aren't going to have many options this late in the game.[/quote]

Would really appreciate feedback from EB parents on how well they feel the school navigated and is navigating pandemic realities.

PP thanks for your response but this search process is for fall 2022. DC current school did an amazing job with pandemic and hybrid/ virtual options but there are other reasons DC wants to explore other options. I just do not want to sacrifice too much in terms of quality flexibility in education - but do want DC to be happy. This would be only one consideration of many.  Thanks![/quote]

So you want a school that will offer a virtual option in fall 2022?[/quote]
