I have a kindergartener and second grader. We are doing hybrid, which is the most in-person allowed in our district. Our state chapter of the AAP is actually advocating strongly for in-person schooling for K-5 and children with special needs based on our low numbers, but that remains to be determined. (Vermont mom)

we chose the hybrid option. Sophomore at Laguardia where only their performing arts will be in person and an 8th grader. Everyone we know is choosing hybrid.
But really, does anyone think in-person schooling will even happen or continue (meaning no outbreaks causing the school to shut)? I don’t understand how people think it’s really going to happen.
I think that schools will 100% have cases, but then they will shut that pod /class for 2 weeks and then open back up in waves. I also think that it's useful to have kids start in person if thy eare going to go remote.
@Anonymous Sure it’s useful to have in-person, but it’s just not goign to happen (and you can argue that it’s a bad idea, health-wise, from the start). I can’t even imagine the coordination required to restart hybrid learning after a shutdown period.
Hell yes, I am. My kids will enter 1st grade and K, at different schools. My daughter is at a school with a very annoying subway commute for us. We have rented a house for the year out of state.

I have two friends who are going fully remote. They're both really risk adverse families, in general.
OP asked for grades. I would have probably chosen fully RL for a high schooler. But I have a Kindergartener, so hybrid will be.
We are choosing remote
We are not choosing remote (even though I'm convinced on-site will never happen). But most of the families I know are.
