[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i don't get the opposition to virtual school for snow days given the alternative is a bunch of half days in late June after exams/APS where it is fully known there is no learning happening.  even if it's not perfect it seems far more likely to result in learning

(and i'm a psychologist and saw a high number of kids who thrived in virtual school-- and plenty who struggled and parents often discovering kids ADHD when watching them learn from home ) [/quote]

I don't want the June half days. I think MCPS should act responsibly when they create their calendar. We all know we're going to have more than 1 snow day the vast majority of years. We need to go back to scheduling at least 183 days. And we need to identify mid-year contingency days and *automatically* use them when snow days are called.

Virtual learning should only be considered for exceptional events that cannot otherwise be reasonably planned for. A week of snow days is not exceptional.[/quote]
