Yeah a lab rat (Nope!!! not my cooking. We are well past it. I wouldn't do that blasphemy) Now to the topic!!! 2020 Favorite topic. When school started, we had 2 choices given by school - Hybrid or Cyber. I chose hybrid. It means some days in school and some days at home and the school district had multiple meetings with parents and the board on the plans and finally our district decided to keep 2 days school and 3 days home. Also to thin the crowd, they decided to split it based on the last name. So coming back, Dewy was hybrid.
