By now, most of us are in the thick of distance learning, aka hell. And while every school — and even every teacher — is doing things a little differently with online learning, there are a few things that I guarantee every parent is thinking while muddling through the school day at home.

No, we would not like to do the optional craft right now

Now I have to check four different apps on my phone, in addition to my actual email, to make sure I don't miss the million messages sent by teachers, administrators, and the PTA in a million different ways.
