[quote=Anonymous]The equity issue continues no matter what. Lower income families are more likely to have to work essential jobs as food workers, delivery drivers and other positions that pay poorly. So it is likely that is no one there to carefully monitor work and support. Closing schools does nothing to fix that issue. It is incredibly hard to monitor work while on a conference call or while holding a 1:1 but it is harder to check in on school work when you are physically not home. So, that idea that it solves or lessens the inequity does not fly. So while OP might be arranging for 3 hours of work time over the summer, someone else will not have that luxury. The equity gap grows no matter what because if you do online work some kids can’t access. If you don’t do online work, kids who have parents who are able to design learning programs get access and others don’t. It happens no matter what. [/quote]
