[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know why concurrent would be needed. FCPS has 180,000 students. If 10% of them choose online, that’s 18k students. If even 5% choose online that’s 9k! Those are both bigger amounts of students than many districts in states that divide their districts by town instead of by county (common in the northeast and upper Midwest/Great Lakes states). It seems like they could give those students dedicated online teachers and still offer most AP/honors/advanced classes, though some of the language immersion options for elementary might not be possible. For context the district where I grew up has around 5500 students total in preK-12 and we had most of the common AP classes available and a few career and technical classes as well. Why can’t they just ask for a full year commitment for 100% online students and teachers and do the same stuff they were doing this year? That way no one has to teach concurrent. [/quote]
