[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is so privileged, including my experience.  We did private and a pod and hired a reading specialist for my K student.  Of course he is fine.

Who was really hurt are lower-income students without family and financial support who were already disadvantaged and are now more so.  It’s unfeeling not to recognize that pandemic learning loss affects those most who can least afford to face it.  As a society we are failing the poor yet again but DCUMers are fine so let’s just not talk about it and/or pretend it isn’t happening![/quote]

This. Kids from lower socioeconomic levels were disadvantaged. Most of DCUM were not.

Similarly, we had no long term issues. We also had private tutors for the entirety of the pandemic and continued the private tutors to date. Kids actually had more intensive math study during COVID than at any other time.

Socially, we have a tight cul de sac with lots of kids. Our neighborhood kids played together quite a bit and were always outside. [/quote]
