• We really enjoyed the first six months of the school year as our kids attended a public school for the first time for 8th and 4th grade. Great teachers, great kids, great staff. But I just don’t get the efforts to “distance learn.” I wrote this to the Superintendent yesterday about 4th grade: “Let's stop kidding ourselves! The math teacher checks with the kids once a week for 30 minutes. Same with the regular classroom teacher. Yet, if our kids had been permitted to attend the facility after March 13, they would have been at school for 32 plus hours a week. How does that square with the one hour that the teachers spend online with the kids?” “How is that one hour of teacher interaction online equates with dozens of hours of in person time? It makes no sense.”
