They have had three months to plan for this
Possibly, a ton more kids opted for virtual than they thought and those kids may all need computers etc etc
Or, they are just lazy fricks and blew this

Sucks, but at least they are going to have pk-5 fully in school on Sept 14th

at the beginning of summer, most districts assumed we would be in Phase 3 right now and almost fully open

We are in phase 2, their plan shows phase 2 has pk-5 in traditional school 5 days a week

They’re hoping we’ll be in phase 3 by then. The things they are being forced to do by opening in phase 2 are unreasonable and ridiculous. No recess, lunches in classrooms, no breaks for teachers and not even a break room if they had breaks. Not to mention all the kids wearing masks all day. Those kids are going to going ape.

Here in Kentucky we were set to do a hybrid in June and then cases jumped and a much larger percentage of parents polled that they wanted virtual instead.

Then why not prep for your school to be virtual for the first month or two in terms of classes and lessons, or is this delay strictly to line up equipment?

But I give St.Tammany more credit than any other school board in louisiana
Why, because a greater percentage of the population of St. Tammany recognizes the importance of education?

And a higher caliber of teacher is willing to go there and be in their public school system as well

It's good that they recognize the youngest need to be in school 5 days a week
Working parents sigh in relief.

Understood. I wasn’t being critical, just asking.

I'm sure it was happening, but preparing and actually doing something is a bit different, no?

The holiday breaks got gutted. No Mardi Gras, Shortened Christmas, shortened thanksgiving, no parish fair, shortened Easter.
Basically they shortened the time kids will be home to get “new germs” and nuked the ability for mass congregation for the fair and Mardi Gras.

Original Start date for St. Tammany was Thurs Aug 20th I think
Pretty sure my kids had an orientation day next Friday the 7th and then the 10th was the first full day. Then they pushed everything back about 2 weeks. Now this

The new schedule has zero days off for Mardi Gras. Gonna be a whole lot of absences that week from everyone who already has vacations booked

My kid is on private school and they are starting August 17th and plan on using the hybrid model.
He's in high school so I'm just happy he gets to go back and start feeling normal again.

I've heard from several teachers in that district that every student will get a Chromebook this year, whether fully virtual or not, and there is a delay in getting that many Chromebooks in house and set up. The district won't even get most of them until later in August, and then has to set them all up.
Also, no Mardi Gras days off at all?
