4 Positive Education Trends to End 2021 | Kerry McDonald

Lt Col Charlie Brown Pre-pandemic enrollment at my high school was around 2,200 students. The district set up a virtual academy for students whose parents didn't want them to return to the classroom. Surprisingly, there were only around 60 high school students went this route and enrollment this year was almost 2,300 students. (The eighth-grade class last year was larger than normal) I thought the number of students going virtual would be much larger. Fortunately, we have not had to go virtual this school year and I hope we don't. Students don't get the same education through zoom meetings that they do in person. I have videos set up for every lesson but there is nothing like having the teacher there to clarify things.

Don't get me wrong. I am not against home schooling (we did it with my son in sixth and seventh grade) as long as the parents are qualified to hold class at home and make their children do the work.

Excellent article ma'am, home schooling, and schools of choice are in the top of the scales here in my neck of the woods Lt Col Charlie Brown
