[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this is not an equity-related reason to switch to virtual, I don't know what its.

MY BRAIN IS EXPLODING. [/quote]

Um.  What?

Yes, let's switch to virtual, so half of the kids in virtual "school" don't even log on because, wait for it, they have little support at home.  Your post makes zero sense.[/quote]

Those kids who won't log on are the kids not going to school now at all. We can't make perfect the enemy of the good.

Except that the only “good” thing about virtual is appeasing anxious parents. And that, I will absolutely be the enemy of.[/quote]

Please STOP gaslighting parents who are considering their family's health and safety of the schools and call them "anxious" - there are equally "anxious" parents who want to keep the schools open for the well-being of their own children for different reasons. They may not do as well virtually and that's understandable. We are all some degrees anxious for different reasons or we probably wouldn't be on this list.

K-12 kids have the opportunity for vaccines.  Full stop.  There's no vaccine for the myriad of ills caused by prolonged remote education.  When expert after expert after expert, and their associated professional groups, ALL say in-person >>>>>> virtual, taking into account risks from COVID, it's pretty startling how many otherwise scientifically-minded folks ignore them.  Truly.[/quote]

I'll say it again - this isn't just a bunch of unvaccinated kids who belong to irresponsible, unscientific, over-anxious, etc. kids. It seems like you really want to pwn them. Kids who get COVID and are in isolation get their instruction via this model too.[/quote]
