On transitional kindergarten in a virtual format

Dude. Virtual learning blows. That is not at all a reflection on Bazzy's teachers. They're fantastic. But it would be better for him to be with them in person. It's been a fucking year. A fucking year since he's mostly been home, other than two months back at his preschool, and it's been killer. I'm not sure if it's harder for him or for me, but I'm guessing it's harder for me. Selfishly, that's enough to make me want him to go back. Every time the Berkeley Unified School District -- with its superintendent whose own kids attend private school in San Francisco -- holds another town hall, I want to smash the computer screen. Do something, God damn it. Make it happen.
