K-12 Future

I am soooo sick of this weather.  Maybe if I could get back to my own home, it would be better.  We had to come stay with my parents because we live out in the middle of no where and couldn't get in and out of our drive.  Don't get me wrong, I love my parents, but I like my own space.  It has been nice though that my dad has dinner ready when I get home from work.  He is the best cook around.  Anyways, since the accident with my son's collar bone, he has now been out of school for three weeks.  He did go Friday, two weeks ago, but he has missed so much.  That being said, I think we should have been able to get some kind of help from the schools.  Even though the kids couldn't make it to the school, why couldn't the schools have something set up online where we could get some kind of homework assignment for them to do in times like this.  How are they ever going to make all of this missed time up?  What about for the future.  I wonder if in 10 or 20 years from now if there will be online classes for K-12?  It would save a lot of money.  It would also be pretty hard for almost 100% of us parents that have full time jobs.  When we would we ever have the time to help our kids with their homework or make sure they have it done.  It would be a big responsibility for us on top of everything else.  I guess I am just thinking about this and have not really made up my mind on which way I would want it.  I know with me working late, getting my homework done, cooking dinner, laundry, and spending time with my family, I really wouldn't have much time to help.  But in our current condition, some extra effort would keep the kids from having to go to school even longer into the Summer.  This is just an idea that popped into my head and I wondered if anyone else has thought about it or has any thoughts of their own on it.
