In reply to the discussion: From a teacher friend....the last paragraph nails it! [View all]marlakay
(11,468 posts)22. My daughters middle school emailed a survey
asking parents if they wanted to keep kids home, partial schedule, full schedule.
I don't know what other parents said but she decided to keep them home and she and her husband will both be working full time at home while helping them.
Luckily these are my brainiac daughter and son n law so they can keep up, but my daughter said she had to look up a few things from Algebra 2 to help her oldest son. Makes you wonder what most parents are doing.
She is in San Antonio and survey done before tons of new cases.
