You read that right – ENTIRE SCHOOL. This news out of Wyoming is the type of things nightmares are made of.
A Wyoming school district plans to re-open an isolated school to serve a single student entering kindergarten this fall.
The Laramie Boomerang reports Cozy Hollow School is about 60 miles north of Laramie. A modular classroom is already there but hasn’t been used for about a decade.
It will be the second one-student school in the Albany County School District. They’re only a few miles apart, but connecting roads are impassable much of the winter.
Wyoming law requires on-site education for isolated students when it’s impossible to transport them to other schools.
The district tried live-streaming classes for isolated students but it didn’t work well, especially for young children.
Imagine being the ONLY kid? What are you expected to do as the only kid? Actually learn?!?! Friends are what make going to school bearable. Not only is it you and a teacher all class, but lunchtime comes around and you hit the lunchroom to just….sit by yourself? How do you not go insane?
Who would I have cheated off of? I put more time into avoiding work than it would have taken to just do the work originally. I always seemed to find myself sitting next to the smartest kid in the class during test time…
My other question is what do this kids parents do for a living?
I get it that not all jobs are suit and tie or manual labor, but if you can’t travel because the roads are covered in snow, what do they do? How do they survive? What do they eat? Where do they eat? Do they have Amazon Prime? All these very important questions need to be answered.
Call me uncultured and ignorant, but the more I think about it, I’m completely out on Cozy Hollow, Wyoming.
