MCPS reported 70% participation with distance learning. The quality of education should improve when they prepare for the fall, and they are working on it now.

My children and their friends are learning very well with distance learning.

Get with the program, OP.

I wonder where they are getting the 70% from.  Can’t be the zoom check-ins.  Since they announced the grading policy only single digits have been attending.[/quote]

Source, please?  I don’t believe this is true, but if it is, then those schools need to step up their outreach to students and families.  Why would parents and guardians tolerate this?  School and learning involves much more than grades and what happens inside of brick and mortar buildings.  So many industries have evolved over the last 100 years...it’s unfortunate that we can’t have the same expectations of innovation for learning and teaching.  [/quote]

Just my DCs observation from every class check in DC attends.  Last week highest  they had was 9 in one class.  Lowest was 2.  Others in between.  Why would DC HS be an outlier?[/quote]

The check-ins are OPTIONAL. It doesn't mean the kids aren’t working, idiot.
My son rarely does the check-ins because he knows how to learn by himself. He has all As and turns in every assignment on time.

What a nice Walter Johnson parent.[/quote]

Sorry, not sorry, but I hate misinformation, and people casually dumping on teachers and school systems without pausing to think it through and criticize fairly.

Participation in optional live check-ins at the high school level does not equate to participation in required assignment completion.

I think the OP was saying that many students need live instruction of some sort rather than just turning in assignments in a vacuum.[/quote]
