My school district is doing full-time remote learning. So while not in class full-time my little one will be getting an education. Going in to the physical learning environment would be much better for her I wholeheartedly agree, but to say my kid is being denied an education is a stretch.
I have a luxury too other folks don't have, I can work remote and my wife sold her company and manages our farm so she is home full time. We live in an area where two income houses are pretty much mandatory unless you want to commute 90 minutes 1 way (which would have been my commute). Folks are desperate to get their kids in school I think not so much because they are eager to ensure their kids get an education but instead they want to be able work at full capacity again (at least that is where I am, and based on what folks are posting/saying for our counties educational programs). I think that is the bigger problem at hand.
If my school area offers full-time remote OR 2 days in and remote we will probably still go full-time remote. I do not know if our little lady could handle getting a small taste of normal for 3-4 weeks only to be angry and confused when someone tests positive and the whole system begins to fall apart and go full-time remote anyways. As adults it is much easier for us to process those things but for a 6-7 year old that is going to be very difficult. Someone WILL test positive. No matter how hard anyone tries it is going to happen.
