[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL @ the different tones in the threads about the closure decision. One thread = enjoying the unexpected day off. This thread = highly upset at the decision to close.

Agreed, although I admit to being disturbed by (and frankly concerned for) those who seem ready to fire Duran because he happened to call a snow day. [/quote]

This is not about snow day. This is aboit total and compete failure to teach the younger grades. [/quote]
Yup.  APS has completely given up on teaching the younger grades.  Did you see the Glebe plan to offer only 40 minutes or 40+30 minutes of in person instruction on hybrid days, with the rest via iPad?   For third graders.  It's insane.[/quote]
That's a scenario specific to Glebe -- they have the model where each teacher only teaches one subject.  Our elementary school has had a single teacher teaching all subjects, so they won't have the same experience.  APS should do more to standardize across neighborhood schools.

That having been said, elementary kids will have had two days off a week (not counting asynchronous Mondays) every week in February.  I think that's why people are complaining.  [/quote]
