I can’t say that I’m surprised about the fact that Mid-Michigan schools are failing when it comes to attendance, failing grades, and enrollment.<\/p>\n
These are the three main problems school districts in Mid-Michigan are running into with remote learning.<\/p>\n
Michigan Center Schools Superintendent Brady Cook said, we’ll reach out to some of these hard reach families and out of nowhere you’ll get a parent contact or a student will email a teacher and you mark it down and you’re excited because they’re engaging and then they disappear for 3 or 4 weeks.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Michigan Center Schools aren’t the only schools going through this problem, Northwest Schools are not hearing from about 100 of their students combined.<\/p>\n
According to\u00a0WILX, Northwest Community Schools Superintendent said, when you’re learning from home and virtually, there is just not that same sense of urgency when you are physically there.<\/p>\n
It’s not just disappearing, enrollment is down in some districts. East Lansing has lost 45 students, mostly elementary schools.<\/p>\n
And on top of all this, more remote learning students are failing classes.<\/p>\n
School districts said parents could be open to changing the virtual learning model but they would need to get approval from the state.<\/p>\n
Currently, the absenteeism rate is 28 percent in Lansing Elementary Schools and 41 percent in the high schools.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The Lansing School Board will be talking about how to deal with huge absentee rates at an upcoming meeting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I can’t say that I’m surprised about the fact that Mid-Michigan schools are failing when it comes to…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3309,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"\n
