On Friday afternoon, married mother of two Brandy Hewitt was on hand while her boys were attending class virtually inside their home near Bonny Oaks Drive. She says she is fortunate to be able to stay at home to help with her children’s studies during the pandemic.
“The balance of trying to keep everyone on task as a parent, it can be quite trying at times; I can only imagine the teachers,” Hewitt said.
Throughout the state, some parents are letting their children go inside school campuses for their education while others like Hewitt have opted for virtual instruction. This school year, Hamilton County Schools enrollment numbers total more than 42,000 students with about 15,000 who signed up for remote learning.
There is a partnership that is brewing this school year, aiming to help parents who have to leave home for work during school hours while their child is left behind learning at home.
A constant reminder
