A went back to school today. We had a million questions for her when she got home. Here are some answers:

• She had only one class today because she had a free period and one teacher was sick. The teacher of the class she had was there in person. Things you don't learn on Zoom: the teacher is Canadian and has a tattoo on her foot.
• She was delivered lunch at her classroom and ate it outside with her friends.
• She wore a mask all day except when eating.
• Kids who stayed home followed the class on Zoom, and there are screens and cameras in the class so A could see the kids at home
• In-person school isn't as tiring as remote school
• She didn't use the restroom at school
• A lot of kids are doing remote school instead of coming in

She has school again tomorrow and will have 1 in person teacher and 2 remote.

L is back from his dental cleaning. He did not need any extractions, which was good for him and for my credit card.

M submitted her NSLI-Y application… again… for in-person China program. We'll see what happens this time around!
