Students Left Behind by Remote Learning

This does not look like a problem we can solve with technology. I do not think we can get pricing down through tech improvements to the point where each child can receive services and devices to be hooked up to a remote learning service.

This is a social problem.

I think you're thinking about this from the opposite perspective. We spend ungodly amounts of money on education.

For instance Detroit Public Schools spend $14,259 per student per year.

There is more than enough money to provide services.

No, that's what I mean. I can't do anything about this. I can't make tools that fit into what's left after they spend all their money. They have to do something else somewhere else. I can't help.

Not claiming they don't have any money.
