Rutherford County Schools Tell Parents Not to Monitor Their Child’s Virtual Classrooms
This means the parents will do it anyway, and raise h3ll about what is going on.
When I was a yout’, parents were able to come sit in the classroom and observe the little darlings at work. It didn’t happen often, but of course when “Bobby’s mom” came and sat in the room I had to be good. On the plus side, moms would also show up at times with treats for a kids birthday or something, which was a good tradeoff.
I think the larger point of this restriction is for parents to not see OTHER kids in Zoom meetings. Would you want other parents seeing inside your home while your kid carries around his/her laptop throughout the house? I know in FL that even the teacher isn’t allowed to see into the home. Not sure how it is for other states. Parents not seeing the curriculum is not the point in this TN mandate.
