HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) After last week s winter storm closed down schools, most districts opted to go virtual on Wednesday. But in Houston ISD, there was a catch.
Parents told ABC13 their kids were only required to log in for a short time without any teachers. They add this created a lot of confusion.
When we reached with some questions to the district, here s what it had to say in response.
Students were told they would only have to log in for about 40 minutes [Wednesday] to complete assignments, yet no teachers. Why was that decision made?
Teachers were provided a teacher preparation day and had the option to return to campuses or work remotely [Wednesday Feb. 24] before returning in person on Thursday, Feb. 25. After our students and their families experienced a very difficult week, we wanted to make sure all facilities were repaired and ready and that students were able to have a smooth transition back to class using virtual asynchronous learning, HISD said ....
