We moved our kids to a private school after school went remote and we saw first hand how terrible the teachers were. We were blown away by just how ineffective they were. Since moving to a private school our kids struggled for the first year but then really started to catch up and are now a couple years ahead of their old peers.
We know others that just decided to switch to programs like K12.
What I find weird about this article is that they should be celebrating smaller class sizes. This should allow them to spend more time helping the students that they do have.
