[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Burgundy knocked it out of the park today for our early elementary class!

Awesome! What worked well?

Everything was well organized and we didn't have any tech issues. The teachers and content were extremely engaging, so much so that my young child was very enthusiastic about it the entire time. Hopefully the excitement doesn't wear off![/quote]

Right, but my son is at a public middle school, and he's enthusiastic about the virtual learning right now as well.  Which makes me wonder why I am spending 35K for my daughter to go to Burgundy right now.[/quote]

Yes. The DL at Burgundy is fine but it’s not 35K fine.[/quote]

But no DL would be worth $35k. No one would be paying that for DL. So they could pull out all the bells and whistles and it's still DL - which is not how kids learn best, nor is it how a progressive, experiential learning program should be. So I think you have to think of it more like you are spending the money for a multi year investment in a school, community, and program that you want your child to experience. I agree it's a tough pill to swallow. But there's no way DL would ever be worth $35k, so you'll consistently be disappointed if you are waiting for that.[/quote]

Why do I “have” to think about it that way? I don’t owe Burgundy this years tuition just because eventually one day when teachers are willing to do their job I can get the honor of paying 35K for in person. I am paying 35K now and I want in person now because that’s what I am paying for[/quote]
