what are you willing to give up or sacrifice for the students (who you expect to make a huge sacrifice, namely continuing to pay huge amounts of money for an on-line education when that's not what they signed up for).
I would say the parents of the 63,000 k-12 kids in the two districts that go off the county numbers are sacrificing more than a little as our kids are not in school getting the education they expected and it’s impacting our jobs and livelihoods.
But either way - how long does this propagate for and how far into the surrounding community does it spread? How far should we ratchet back the few social interactions we have gotten back to.
ETA- I think if we can we should ride this pony. Sending these kids back home everywhere and propagating the problem seems like a worse idea. So, how do we best ride this out? Is it possible to get it under control without it totally blowing up on the local area? How much risk are we taking on?
In reality for me if the kids get another semester virtual I might sacrifice all the way to moving to my ski condo for nov and dec and Nordic skiing daily. Can you feel my pain?
