Even though parents have every right to that decision, they have to consider the extent to which they are prepared and have the skills to carry it out, he said.
Huerta added that if parents are exploring the idea of shifting to home schooling, they will need to be very aware of the challenges and rigor of executing it well, and need to be able to quickly tap into the many resources that can support them in that transition.Jessica Bates, a Nashville-based mother of two, has already started preparations with curriculum research based on input from two of her sisters who are public school teachers. Her son will be starting kindergarten in the fall.
“COVID-19 has helped people to see that there are other education options out there that they had never seriously considered before,” said Michael Hansen, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and the director of the Brown Center on Education Policy. “It allowed people to see flexibility and think outside the box about what schooling means and how it works best for their children.”
Despite the school's precautions, she said she is still not comfortable exposing her children to other kids.
BETTER THAN GETTING A SOCIALIST MARXIST INDOCTRINATED CHILD! I’m for school choice! That way bad teachers won’t have kids just because!
Duhhhhhhhhh... 🤷♀️
Better then the anti America communist indoctrination they get from liberal teachers.
I’m sure that my grandparents and their parents would get a big laugh out of the fact that being a parent is now a news story. I actually have to deal with my own child. That’s horrible didn’t we give them their own country Chaz or chop?!? 🙄
I am hearing about more and more parents having “the conversation “ i.e. which parent will quit their job to stay home and homeschool and teach their kids if kids cannot go back to school this fall. Unbelievable. Open the schools.
I can say virtual learning did not go well for my kindergartener. Total disaster.

One in every fifth person in Florida now has Covid-19 as the Florida hospital system buckles.
Tons of parents homeschool just fine. The biggest obstacle for most is potential lost income of a parent staying home.
There are a lot of resources available. The community support is huge. If you do consider, know you’re not alone.
Those are public education experts, not homeschooling experts. Parents who have homeschooled their own children for years are experts. Ignore Professors.
Donald left parents no choice. One of our most important tasks as parents is to ensure our kids stay healthy with the ability to live full productive lives.
This 'crisis' will be the ultimate death of public schools! 😊
