Which I think is what Slava was getting at and you are correct. Most of them went to watch TV and play Video Games.
Which again, has me bitching about Teaching Administration as opposed to Teachers themselves, theres plenty of crap to go around, but when the Administration basically flings their arms up in March and says:
"Pandemic! School's Out! Don't worry about it!"
And then a few weeks later turns to the Teachers and tells them to keep Teaching? You sold them out. Thats an almost impossible task.

Was it Administration that said that, or politicians? I'm a bit fuzzy on the memory, but I thought all these "tests don't count anymore" proclamations came directly from the government. I mean, I'm sure they consulted with numerous experts before they said it...
