School districts extend online learning deadlines as COVID delta variant leaves parents torn
Districts extend online learning sign-up as COVID rise leaves parents torn
Some districts in Central Florida are giving parents more time to sign their kids up for virtual school as the Delta variant leaves parents uncertain about whether to send their students back into the classroom.
VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. - Some school districts in Central Florida are giving parents more time to sign their kids up for virtual school as the delta variant leaves parents uncertain about whether to send their students back into the classroom.
Volusia County announced Monday that parents now have until Thursday, Aug. 5, at 5 p.m. to apply for Volusia Online Learning.
There was an explosion of interest in remote and online learning this year thanks to the coronavirus pandemic.
The year started with 9,000 students enrolling in Volusia Online Learning and another 16,000 opting for Volusia Live. By March, more than half of those students were back in face-to-face schooling: Volusia Online Learning had 4,000 students and Volusia Live had 7,000.
But Volusia Live was developed quickly out of lessons learned from remote schooling at the end of the 2019-2020 school year and posed many problems.
Teachers complained about constantly shifting rosters, technological challenges and the hefty task of teaching two groups of students at once. Students grades slipped, prompting the district to ask that many students return to in-person learning (in turn, exacerbating the challenges teachers were already dealing with).
