Probably depends on the school. Some schools will have more ability than others to go online.
Just erase the days IMO.
Shout out to technology in this case that allows at least a good amount of people to work from home.
My hope is the services like water utility, etc. are able to stay up and running...you'd think the jobs that don't deal much with the public would be safer.
Do they make up days if an entire area is destroyed by a natural disaster or something and school isn't even an option?
I agree. I’m just saying add the weeks back going into summer if things settle down.
It’s a suggestion, not a mandate. Though I would imagine all school districts will follow.
I think schools can get a waiver in extreme circumstances. I think it might be a good idea for that to apply here.
Especially for high schoolers, who are more likely to have summer jobs and such.
Last night after her recommendation that events over 250 cease, they all shut down.
Schools will follow suit.
Schools will follow suit.
No one wants to be the superintendent that didn’t follow suit and have issues in that community.
The school that I am current in SC Iowa was hit by a tornado 3 years ago, I was not teaching there at the time. The school was forced to move into a care center after 3 weeks, about 10 days of that time was forgiven, but the school did have to add a week on the end of the school year to make up for missed days.
The school celebrated the 3 year anniversary of the tornado last week.
I just saw the tweet. One was Polk. One was a kid.
and again, I doubt we are testing near enough.
Polk, Johnson, Alamakee.
