virtual learning

Last week the superintendent of the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District said any parent who wants to enroll their child in the district’s new virtual academy would be able to. But according to the Texas Education Agency, Uvalde CISD is still currently required to limit virtual instruction to 10% of its total enrollment.

Even with promises of significant security upgrades — from 8-foot fences to secure front entrances — families in Uvalde have been asking for a virtual option for weeks.

The stress and strain of living through a pandemic — while learning virtually for an entire year — has hurt the attendance records of many Texas students, including the Yebra siblings’. But they're not ready to go back to the classroom.

With schools across the state now open to in-person instruction, many Texas teachers are simultaneously teaching students in the classroom and at home.
