[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ridiculous. DCPS only needs to offer/host/launch one virtual school (or better, contract with a company that does this well because that’s all they do). Want virtual? Sign your child up for that school and give up your rights to whatever in-person school you attended previously. It’s absurd to expect every individual school to divvy up its budget between inperson and virtual and expect to do it all well. [/quote]

Yes - there are parents freaking out and want online school, but they have to give up that they will be connected to their specific school. That connection just makes things worse for everyone students and teachers. Maybe DC could contract with virtual Virginia to give families that option if they want it, but definitely not connected to specific DC schools.

DC won’t do an open enrollment virtual school.  Too many kids did not attend virtual school last year and they won’t let parents make that choice because too many parents would choose it and use it as an excuse to not get their kids up and to school.  It sounds harsh but it’s the reality.[/quote]

Not all parents make the best choices for their kids. And as this thread shows, that includes UMC parents.[/quote]
