[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like at ITS nobody is getting hybrid.  We will be lucky to have a few staffed playdate type events now and then.[/quote]

The email seemed to describe more than playdates -- although playdates first -- but yeah, nothing like a plan for A/B day 2x/wk type of hybrid or any real classroom instruction, just more opportunities for students to come to school.[/quote]

I have no clue what the school has in mind.  But it doesn't seem to be very much at all.  I am super disappointed.[/quote]

Oh this is interesting. I read it that they would be doing hybrid but not worrying about starting with young grades only, rather they will pursue the goal of bringing older kids too if staffing permits. While they are sorting out the groupings we will have the meet ups with teachers which I think are great and overdue. [/quote]

I would be shocked if you got anything substantial out of ITS.  They are really dragging their feet and making every excuse they can find.

Personally I would be fine with two days in person and three days asynchronous (or for preschoolers, three days of nothing) but I understand other parents feel differently.[/quote]

I actually feel like last night's email pulled back the curtain on plans they are making on multiple fronts: expanded learning hubs; in person meet ups to foster connection; and in person learning at the school for all students not just starting with the youngest.  TBD how many days of that will be offered based on interest and mapping to staff capacity.[/quote]

It did pull back the curtain, but with no firm commitments.  And what is behind the curtain isn't very much.  Oh wow, an outdoor meetup, what a stunning feat of organizational competence.[/quote]
