Spring Break Delayed

The first week of eLearning actually went pretty well. The girls were disciplined about doing their homework every day. There was some confusion about grading, which worked itself out by Friday.  Teachers could count grades that helped the students, but not grades that brought down a student's grade. This meant that the lowest grade a student could end up with was the one in the grade book on March 13.

The girls' teachers ended the week by letting the classes know that students who did all their work would receive extra credit. It was a thank you for all the students who completed assignments.

After the first week, the girls were on Spring Break. We had planned to go to Amelia Island, Florida. We watched as cities and states essentially closed down. We cancelled our plans due to Covid-19. 

We had a big surprised planned for the girls. At the end of Spring Break, Daddy was not going back to his retirement job. He was going to stay home for the summer and find something else to do when the girls went back to school. We told them right after he came home from his last day at work. They were very excited. After a long, crazy week, Daddy deciding to stay home with his family was welcome news.
