- Description
- Local public school board reported close to double the number of families teaching children themselves compared to previous year.
The number of reasons for this included parents working from home opting to keep children home too, consistency in providing their child's education (twice in less than a year, students had to quickly pivot from in school to online learning), concerns related to COVID-19, and difficulties related to connectivity and technology access. - Publisher
