My teen is doing school now online remote. Im all for it but I hate it from his point of view. School is about socializing with other kids now he misses out on that.
Kids can socialize outside of school. For many it is an echo chamber of gossiping and bullying. Do not assume schools are safe environments. Look into online learning programs separate from the school, many good ones. We are done with the local school and enrolling our daughter into an online curriculum for next semester. For her junior and senior years she will be in a tech school learning a trade hands on
There are homeschool coop groups where homeschooling parents get together for just a few classes for the kids, parents meet up to male sure they are up on curriculum and kids can do PE, sports, socialize etc;
My brother and his wife do this with their kids and they are super smart, ahead of the game by far, well adjusted, respectful, courteous and polite kids
