I do not think people realize the District and individual high schools are currently planning to open in hybrid form with multiple asynchronous days in fall 2021. We need to open the schools FULL TIME next year and we need to plan right now or that will not happen. Two days per week with one day of asynchronous learning (teachers give 5 or 6 hours of work the kids need to accomplish by themselves) is not a real high school. There is no need for this to continue next year. At that point, all adults will be vaccinated. The urgency to save our schools and give our children meaningful access to education is now.
