[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know it’s getting old to keep pointing to Covid, but I genuinely think this particular cohort—mostly the current 7th graders, also likely some current 6th and 8th graders—missed a key window of social development after spending a full year in virtual school (for today’s 7th graders, that meant the second half of 1st grade and almost all of 2nd). At my DC’s elementary school, the administration could not wait for that 6th grade group to move on because their collective behavior was the worst they’d seen, and that same cohort came back noticeably more challenging in 3rd grade than they had been in 1st. I don’t have a student at Carson, but at another FCPS middle school, horseplay seems to be pretty common. This isn’t to excuse the behavior, just to offer a possible explanation for why it seems to be increasing.[/quote]

Sounds like a corhort of *parents* who didn't rise to the challenge, and not the kids.

I have a 7th grader, and that group was quite fine as 6th graders and have had no major issues in MS. [/quote]
