I honestly don't know if those parents think that will happen. At the same time, I also think they're at the point where if they can get the kids out of the house 5 days a week for a few weeks or a couple months, it will be worth it to them. If those other districts go online or hybrid at some point, I'm sure 383 will already be there. In that case, they won't be worse off and will have gotten some time where the kids are in school 5 days a week.

Given these universal truths, I suggest we all start thinking creatively and share our learnings while ignoring the crazy, vocal minority of virtue-signaling communists who hate innovation and want their lives run by our dysfunctional government … you know, the same government that has us spending more and getting less from education today, and which is performing in last place when it comes to dealing with the crisis.

Or will they be stuck in districts where they don't know anyone? Whatever, anything just to get them out of my hair for a couple weeks, because it's really about the kids

I think there is a good chance the schools get shut down, but I think it is worth it to send them rather than trying to finagle a home school situation.i mean, if you're sending yourself, you might as well send the children too.

does make you question what everyone's collective expectations were to change course so quickly, also I wouldn't doubt if it was a reaction to media coverage more than to viral spread.
