I'm depressed today because my Kindergartener didn't lottery into an in-person seat, so unless bunches of families turn down their seats, she will remain in virtual school hell except now with a new teacher and classmates. My DC is going to be devastated. Trying to hold onto the fact that in this moment, we are healthy. Everything sucks right now.

Hang in there. I would not be surprised if there are large amounts of kids who do turn it down. If there are health risks at home, people aren't going to send their kids.

I can't imagine a K student being "devastated" over this. Are you being a touch dramatic?

Agreed - enormous amounts of work went into creating plans. There will be simulcasting - for the half of students who are home during their wee,, and for students in-person whose teacher is remote: the older grades all have team teachers, and at least one teacher per team was willing to come back.
