Reply To: Contingency Plans for Extended School Closings

There is no agenda here. From what I’ve read here on YWN, some schools that had not previously used internet are now using it to some limited degree and others are now using it for the first time with good results. Others have used phone conferencing on an interim basis, hoping that the schools would be allowed to reopen sometime in later April. In any event, the majority of schools now have to decide whether to continue these interim arrangements for the long-term and develop an affirmative contingency plan if they stay closed. A telephonic system that worked for 2 weeks may not be sufficient for 2 months or longer.
