I’ve got a high school senior son. He was accepted at a Virginia “Public Ivy” for the Fall. Out of state tuition is around $45,000 plus room, board, fees.

I’m not paying that much for him to sit in his room and do correspondence courses.

He will definitely be taking a gap year!

My son's a senior, too. He'll be attending a local cc for the next two years, maybe 3, and get his associate's first. He's got a terrible case of senioritis, compounded by the online "schooling" taking place.

I think the after action reports regarding online schooling will be declared a disaster. I expect the first third of my grandson's 4th grade year to consist of remedial instruction for what he missed the last few months of third grade.

I'm not blaming anyone, the educators and administration were dealt "aces and eights".
