Oregon’s online schools also subject to Gov. Kate Brown’s coronavirus closure order"

"Online academies are now barred from enrolling new students, however, according to the presentation. And among the reasons why is state officials’ fear that families will drop out of their neighborhood schools in favor of an online option, which would decrease funding for public brick-and-mortar schools across the state."



"Instead, the online portal the Portland district has launched contains supplemental material that isn’t meant to be graded or advance students along the learning tracks they began at the outset of this school year" (this is portland mind you, the local school district has not provided supplemental materials ... except some teachers doing it for themselves....as Ive said 4 times now)

So the Portland Public School District, got it. Honestly, all it took was typing that out to answer my question.

Here's an article from March 27th about that school district preparing to roll out a robust online learning program. It sounds like they are preparing to exactly what I said they are already doing here:

"On Friday, Portland Public Schools told teachers about plans to start working online next week. The idea is to roll out a more robust, multi-week home-based learning system. The district plans to release more details next week.

Up to this point, the district has posted learning resources on its website. It has also made learning packets available online and in hard copy at designated meal sites. The district says staff are preparing another set of learning materials that will include more math, arts and PE.

Next week, teachers will get curriculum and more direction on how to best address home learning while schools are closed, which for right now, is until April 28 in Oregon.

The idea for the multi-week home-based learning system is to facilitate more online interaction with students and make more digital learning resources available in core content areas for kids from pre-K to 12th grade. That educational material will also be available in paper form."

Im not in portland. Its all off oregon. Now ive said it 5 times.

What's the name of this school district? I am interested in doing some research.

Geezus you're an arrogant fucking prick.

https://www.seattletimes.com/education- ... s-closure/

This article from a week ago talks about it. A lot of schools didn't go online because they didn't have the capabilities or many of the students didn't have access to the internet.

And it has nothing to do with what Mich was alluding to, teachers aren't not teaching out of laziness. I'm sure they all want to teach, they just don't have the ability because of technological limitations. There are all kind of stories of teachers going above and beyond to help their students. So, mich will be happy to know they're earning their fucking paychecks that he seems to think they shouldn't get.

Arrogant because it sounded strange to me that a public school district would simply shut down with no learning opportunities for their students at all and I wanted to read more about their situation to hear what hurdles they were encountering? You complain and hurl personal insults that I only pay attention to myself and then you complain and hurl personal insults when I show an interest in what others are going through and discussing.

Kinda sounds like to just like to complain and hurl personal insults.

And no, wrong thread. This one is the one where youre an asshole if you think online schools ahould be allowed to operate right now, and/or you think thw state should be doing more to facilitate online learning options instead of shutting them down.

If so, something that has bothered me the last couple of weeks are what are being sold as feel-good stories:

I think it shows the good nature of people when pro athletes donate money to the team's employees or stadium crew, or when local restaurants provide meals to children that aren't in school. BUT, are you fucking kidding me??? Why is this happening?
