The panelists are wearing masks correctly.

But that’s always an option. People get moved every year, even after the start of the year in some cases

Main take always are they are apologetic and aware of the issues. They have been working to fill staff vacancies (really the teacher shortage is across the county/state/country) and are trying to get creative with recruitment. Interim principal came off confident and in control— if I were a parent of a VLP student, I’d be happy she was taking the lead. Apparently a former FLES teacher will begin providing Spanish immersion language arts next week. Sped services should be managed by home school case carriers and related service providers.

We have a plan that doesn't sound different from the plan before school started, but we just plan/hope to do it better. Oh, and we're so committed to the virtual program that we are now focusing on our original plan more.

Does anyone know any private virtual programs (non-religious) still taking students?

My immunocompromised son needs virtual. This townhall gave me 0 faith in APS providing the VLP in any acceptable format half-way soon. I'm contacting Virtual Virginia tomorrow.

What a disaster. I'm registering now for Virtual Virginia for January. I gotta get my 1st grader out of this sink ship.
