Some kids stay home and log in. Some kids come to the classroom . We teach both groups at the exact same time.


It’s DL from inside the building. In other words, dumb shit


It’s far worse, since the teacher has to split their attention between in-person and online students. It’s the worst of both worlds, and that’s if the tech all works!

You don't get to decide that for every else. Some kids want it, and they get to choose. Your kid can stay home.

Would this impact the way the teacher would normally teach a class? In other words, could you teach as you would normally, and those at home are basically just watching from their computer?


The teacher will teach us they normally have done on DL. There won't be as much of them moving around and using different parts of the classroom because of mitigation strategies and the fact that the kids at home need to observe the instruction as well.

They’re never happy

My kids hate school
My kids hate DL
My kids will hate concurrent
My kids hate their teacher
I hate FEA
I hate teachers
Why can’t we have everything we want
What about private schools.


I think everyone agrees with the bolded.

This is probably the closest to good it can get but I’m worried if my kids ever needed to quarantine that basically means no live teaching for them the entire 14 days since there’s no online component in hybrid elementary. At least high schoolers can still log in from home if they can’t come in.


They could just switch back like they did in March. That's how my child's private school does it - they've quarantined (just the class, not the whole school) once and took inauguration day off and just switched to online for those days.


Yeah if it’s the whole class but I mean what if it’s just my kids . The class will continue in person


If you care, then don't do anything outside of school and it won't be an issue.


I don’t! But my kids will have to go to aftercare so yeah, there’s a scenario where they could get exposed there and quarantine but their class wouldn’t. Jeez. Don’t be such an a-hole.

These teachers are amazing and are a wonderful presence in my kids’ life through this madness.


Thank you for saying something positive about teachers.

My friend’s daughter was in a concurrent school and they both loved it.
