Elearning days are bound to happen at least 2 or 3 times. Is it fair that we are only allowed to have 3? Students still have to do work for Elearning days, students are still learning. Why should students have to make up work later in the year because of bad weather?

All students would rather come to school than have a day off and make up days before the summer. Some students have trouble with Wifi, but students can go to other people's houses or can be excused for the day.

Elearning days are still days that students do work. If students don’t do the work it will just be counted missing as if we were in school. Miriam Faulkenberg said, “I think we should be able to have more than 3 Elearning days because I don’t want to make them up in may.” No one wants to make up school work before the summer. Teachers don’t want to come into school on extra days either.

Another reason We should be allowed to have more than 3 Elearning days is because on Elearning days siblings and family can bond more. Rayne Alderson said, “I think we should have more Elearning days so I can spend more time with my family.” With some families it can be hard to spend time with each other, on Elearning days you practically get the whole day off. You can spend more time with your family that way!

Teachers also should be able to have almost a full day to not worry about work, students can have a hard time with an assignment but teachers make time to help students. There is nothing stopping students from finishing their work at home. 

At the end of the day students have to make up work even if they like it or not. The weather might not always be in the schools favor. Even though snow days are great, a lot of students can agree that they would rather have an Elearning day than making up work in may.
