The schools in my area had a similar timeline to nostr:npub1csamkk8zu67zl9z4wkp90a462v53q775aqn5q6xzjdkxnkvcpd7srtz4x9 then with covid chromebooks were ordered and sent home all the way down to kindergarten. My sister’s kids were with me and my parents all together. It was the beginning and so much was unknown. She’s a nurse and was working covid wards. Didn’t want to risk exposing her kids. Virtual kindergarten was so weird. The other was in high school. It seemed more normal to me because I had taken college classes online. Google in multiple ways has a monopoly. It didn’t start with covid. Schools just went harder with the systems they already had set up.
