School is tough these days. Teachers are overburdened by teaching giant classes of kids virtually, with none of the usual resources they usually use to actually keep kids present and engaged in their work. Parents are overburdened by kids at home needing constant supervision. Ultimately, most kids just aren’t self-motivated enough to succeed in virtual school. As such, it’s up to parents to get a little more involved and creative.
