The school district where I live in Texas just forced students who had a certain number of absences or were below a certain GPA to attend school on campus; no more virtual school for them.

What's wrong with this though? If the parents don't have the resources to keep the kids engaged and doing well, they need to be in, in person school.

This happens in our district when, for example, students go many days without logging in, have turned in only one or two of the 15 assignments due so far, and have about a 10% average. Keep in mind that I'm talking about 16-18 year olds though. They're old enough to log in at home every day without parental supervision. And the vast majority of parents don't bother to log in and see their kid's grades on even a weekly basis. Some do and are very diligent. Most do not.
