FCPS (MD) - no complaints here

While internet may have affected log on (We didn't experience issues.), Schoology is working well.  FCPS adopted Schoololgy and most (nothing is ever perfect) teachers are comfortable with it.  There are NO LIVE conferences, which is a blessing.  Lessons are taped and materials are posted online. My HS kid is taking quizzes online, and my son is comfortable using the platform to turn in work.

I've worked with Google Classroom, Haiku, and Canvas. Schoology is easy to use.

Granted, FCPS is smaller, but there was an ONLINE expectation for mastering the chosen LMS.  not the case for MCPS - So be patient with teachers. They are the scapegoats b/c the system never provided training.[/quote]

I'm the PP. FCPS's approach seems good to me. My point was friends are complaining because they think another district is better. For example, FCPS friends expect live teaching all day, which I think is misguided. There is no perfect online system, especially considering the circumstances.[/quote]
