If your parents would home school you that would prevent you from getting sick or maybe you catching that deadly virus. you wouldn't be interacting with other students and that would be good for your system which means not getting sick as often. If you do get sick you would be home schooled so you could do your work at anytime and turn it in at anytime with out getting points deducted. Critics would argue that many students would get sick still. They could become home sick and would want to go out and still catch that deadly virus going around. Also, being home sick could affect the way you learn at home. Many students could say that if you do get home sick you could you just go to your backyard and just sit their and enjoy the sun for a little while. Also, you would be able to go out and where a mask which many schools don't let you do that. If you are home schooled chance are you wouldn't catch a deadly virus as easy as a public school student.
