Online Education

Stacy De Witte talks with her fellow math teachers in a video meeting while sitting on the patio behind her home in Archdale on April 30. The rush to begin online learning in the face of COVID-19 has meant adapting to a variety of online learning platforms.

Stacy De Witte waves goodbye to other math teachers at the end of a video meeting while sitting on the patio behind her home in Archdale. Out of the roughly 100 students she teaches, she said in April she had not been able to reach up to about a dozen of them in any way. “I think that’s the hardest part about teaching right now, the kids you can’t get in touch with at all,” she said.

Stacy De Witte plays with her 9-year-old son Gavin Schaefer after a video meeting with the other 8th grade math teachers from her home in Archdale, N.C., on Thursday, April 30, 2020.

Online Education

Stacy De Witte talks with her fellow math teachers in a video meeting while sitting on the patio behind her home in Archdale on April 30. The rush to begin online learning in the face of COVID-19 has meant adapting to a variety of online learning platforms.

Stacy De Witte waves goodbye to other math teachers at the end of a video meeting while sitting on the patio behind her home in Archdale. Out of the roughly 100 students she teaches, she said in April she had not been able to reach up to about a dozen of them in any way. “I think that’s the hardest part about teaching right now, the kids you can’t get in touch with at all,” she said.

Stacy De Witte plays with her 9-year-old son Gavin Schaefer after a video meeting with the other 8th grade math teachers from her home in Archdale, N.C., on Thursday, April 30, 2020.
