This right here. This is why my district offered in person and virtual, and I opted for virtual for both of my kids. It's a 6 weeks commitment at a time, so if things straighten up, I can have them back in physical school within 6 weeks. And this is supposed to be structured virtual courses that actually engage them and keep them learning the entire day, as opposed to the 1 assignment per class per week that they were doing last Spring.

Considering I did my Associate's degree 100% on-line and never stepped foot on the campus I graduated from, I'm okay with this and fully intend to help my kiddos. Yes, kids need socialization but mine are 11 and 14 and they're doing fine without big hangouts.
