Teachers in the district said transitioning from in-person learning is not ideal, but agree it’s better than alternative problems that stem from missing school completely, something that the Anchorage School District is currently facing.
“Where it’s nice to have the snow day where you don’t have any responsibility, having the remote day is beneficial because we don’t have to extend our school day or our school year, which can be a stress for parents and teachers,” Butte Elementary School Teacher Lori Abney said.
Abney and Anisimova said that while it is a struggle to educate students virtually, both agree that they prefer to go remote over having to make up the days at the end of the year.
