someone has been trying to call the missing ones. I've had a couple students caught on vacation overseas who can't get back. One in the hospital, a few taking care of sick relatives. It's all over the place. I'd guess 10%-20% are not on line. The district offers laptops and free wifi to students if they want.

We are beginning to look scraggly and need hair cuts. On line staff meetings are getting pretty humorous.

The reported numbers are way too low - maybe half the real cases if you talk to health folks.
