No, your plan doesn't meet the requirements yet for any day of the week.

see page 12





They want 5 hours x 5 days per week live + 1 hours x 5 days per week asynchronous = total of 30 hours weekly instruction for high school

MCPS only has 22 hours scheduled now total and only 18 live (synchronous) not the 25 needed.

PGCPS has 24 hours total, and also 18 live.

Thanks for posting that, PP. I don’t think MCPS is meeting those requirements on Wednesdays for ES even.

I am reading the MD State Dept of Ed has issued new requirements for live learning. FIVE hours per day for high schoolers.

I am a 50 year old adult and cannot do 5 hours a day of Zoom classes. Why should by 10th grader be any different?
