[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm still not clear on how offering 4-5 days in person per week to anyone who chooses to attend is racist.[/quote]

Because you are determined not to understand it.

Or prove me wrong: Why are some families not returning for hybrid? Why might they not return for 4-day in person for the rest of the quarter? How does insisting the APS provide it make things worse for them?[/quote]

Some families are not returning for hybrid because they have either made a decision that it is not safe for their families or the logistical hurdles (no aftercare, need to work, older children providing childcare for younger children) are too much right now. Right now they would rather stay with the status quo and limp through to the end of the year (understandable). I'm don't have an answer for your third question, which is kind of my point. How does APS providing more days to those who want them make it worse for those who are full time virtual? It does not. [/quote]

If those families are already getting the services they want, then why are they even speaking out? What more are they hoping to get? Why are they obstructing other families from doing what is right for them? If you don’t want your kid to return to in-person school, then continue to elect virtual or hybrid. I’m glad their selection is working out for them, but don’t try to speak out preventing other families from getting what would work for their kids. No one regardless of race should get to obstruct other people’s children from getting the best education model that works for them. [/quote]
