Based upon what I saw post shutdown, there was zero accountability on the part of the students/parents to get any school work done. I had kids playing outside in the neighborhood from 8a.m.-8p.m every day, and that's only ended recently due to heat. There's no way these kids got any education "learning" from home, except in social promotion. There was zero accountability, and zero consequences.
Due to that I think the appropriate thing to do is send the kids back to the classrooms. I've heard the 3 on 2 off rotation, but due to the busing/transportation obstacle I don't think that rotation will work. MY proposal would be break the kids up alphabetically. 20% of the kids attend their classes one day a week M-F. That day is the day you turn in hard copy homework, take tests and quizzes, and hash out concepts the kids can't figure out from home, and receive the next weeks syllabus and hard copy homework.
Doing it the 20% daily way would keep everyone employed by the school system working, allow sufficient space for distancing in classrooms and on buses, and afford some measure of accountability for progress on both the teachers and the students.
