![]() There is another fact that must be addressed. These are the facts regarding children who were enrolled in our schools when the pandemic sent them home. Facts are that some parents are not yet ready to return their children to any school for in-person learning. Facts are that some children have found new schooling providers and will not return to their pre-pandemic school. Facts are that some children already have returned to in-person learning. This is not necessarily a call for all children to return to in-person learning in their pre-pandemic school. In the game of learning, we need to know the status of each child’s learning? Schools don’t know. It is time to gather all the children who are enrolled in the school and provide everyone with a needed status check. That should be the message to all children and their parents from a school today. Olly olly oxen free was what children heard and repeated when the originators of the game actually yelled into the dusk, “All ye out come in free”. Sounds like remote education in a pandemic. Many winners were possible in every game. Hide and seek, a game that allows children to scatter, find cover, wait out the person seeking them, and if not found, return to home base a winner. On a dusky summer evening in our neighborhood a parent would hear “Olly olly oxen free” and know that children still unfound in a game of hide and seek could now come out of hiding, gather around the home base, and start a new game.
