3. I can see schools going to a hybrid system.

Classes are a bit less than 1/2 size, kids come in every other day or two days a week. If every other day, then teachers get an extra conference period; if twice a week, teachers have one day conference.

The extra conference would be for dealing with all the online stuff--assignments, quizzes, etc.--as well as faculty meetings and PLCs or even ARDs. Students come in for tutoring, for testing, for labs.

Worst of all possible worlds.

I think districts would love/hate it, because then they'd assume that they're in charge of every lesson. Some of our administrators like that idea--they don't like that maybe something in one school isn't the same as something at a different school. They respect diversity by implementing things in lockstep. We each have our own style in working through the required content, using the same materials and problems so they get the same test. Gag.
