The Districts are realizing this is not as easy as planned. A south OC school with a dominant football team was told by their principal they could not use Zoom while at school to teach those students who have chosen to learn through Distance Learning; citing a bandwidth issue.

Many schools are uncertain as to how they will implement their board approved schedules. They look good on paper...

When one person decides to walk between desks you have lost the six feet for social distancing and ?must? wear a mask.

They will enforce the mask wearing as well as schools enforce cell phone use in the classroom. No technology allowed, but the teacher can?t confiscate the phone. So if a student removes the mask is a teacher to walk out of the room...doubtful. In terms of returning, Labor Day might create an...

School administrators in a local district have already said they don?t have the resources to clean every classroom daily. This should be addressed prior to any reopening.

Anyone believe the Model Y standard range is gone for good or is Elon just trying to push buyers to the long range version if buyers can?t wait?

This is zoned for El Toro HS, which is seeing significant improvement again. There is also word of the Nakase Nursery being developed into residential with plans for an elementary school, which will serve Baker Ranch.

I?d suggest Foothill HS (Tustin USD) or Trabuco Hills HS (Saddleback Valley USD). Both are consistently high achieving schools outside of IUSD, but not far.

Hybrid/blended has my vote. Five days in an unsanitary classroom is unsafe for students and staff. Schools don?t have the staff or resources to clean daily, they never have even for vacuuming and dry erase board cleaning.  The one or two days depending on the grade level provides for...

This comment by Ryan Burris won?t add up in the end. You need certificated teachers supervising students at all times.

Schools don?t have a specific plan as of yet and are still surveying until more specifics come from the state in mid-July. Parents have the ultimate voice at board meetings; especially with board elections in November.

Even two days a week, as long as families attend on the same days, would be helpful for learning, family childcare or work-related needs. A-L attend Mon-Tues, schools are sanitized on Wed, then M-Z attend Thurs-Fri. As conditions improve adjustments could be made.

Distance learning is more effective when grades matter. Additionally a teacher?s presence in the classroom helps maintain student engagement whereas parents were not willing or were unable to offer the same supervised engagement.

Any chance moc stands for member of Congress (Katie Porter)?

Congresswoman Porter does stand up to the financial industry frequently, however she has chosen to vote by proxy during the pandemic. Text from GovTrack ?Rep. Katie Porter is currently voting by proxy under new rules in effect during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since May 26, 2020, Rep. Jennifer...

That?s why the rules in the a House were changed so 435 members don?t have to report to work anymore. The actual government workers who run the chamber are there though.

Hopefully the UCs merge their knowledge and preferences with California?s CAASPP (state test for schools), which would benefit both groups. Next up...AP Tests that had problems with remote assessments. Why pay for an AP Test where you might not pass or receive college credit. Instead...

I agree...so much money was put into campaign signs and petition signing so the same money should become the start of public donations for cemetery.

Our Gang, How would you suggest the ARDA site be funded so we are successful in honoring our veterans?

Irvine?s year round school is slated to start mid July, but no commitment on whether that means students in the classroom, but the district is shying away from the mention of continued distance learning. About masks being worn by students, teachers are no longer allowed to take away cell phones...
