Season 4 Episode 9: Frequently Asked Questions about Remote Learning

October 30, 2020

Remote learning - an option many schools are implementing during the COVID-19 pandemic - undoubtedly comes with its own set of challenges.  How should districts address attendance when students fail to log in or turn on their video? What happens when children simply cannot access the district's platforms or technology, due to wifi problems, equipment issues, or other logistical difficulties? What if a family opts for in-person learning, but then wants to switch mid-semester?  Are students expected to follow the code of conduct when learning in pajamas at the dining room table?


Join Attorneys Christina Peer, Lisa Woloszynek, and Miriam Pearlmutter for a discussion of some frequently asked questions we receive about remote learning during this ongoing pandemic.  School districts face unprecedented challenges at this time and we are here to help talk through  these issues with you!
