I think it’s safe to say that we all started this school year worried like we’ve never been worried before. From getting through Zoom meetings for work while our kids were simultaneously Zooming for school; to being wildly worried about whether the hybrid model would actually work for our kids and our family; and of course, if anyone would come down with COVID-19 or worse, die from it.
We are all, in some way, impacted by COVID-19, especially as parents with school aged children. This school year, my kids started off the year 100% remote. Once our community COVID-19 infection rate went down enough to safely partially open schools, it was the right decision for my family and my kids, to get them inside of the classroom and send them to school. Our dining room table just wasn’t cutting it for them.
