When trying to decide if she should have all of her eight children learn remotely this school year, Stay-at-Home Mom Renata said she asked herself, “Could I handle this?” According to Kallmbah, she is able to get it done with lots of patience. The youngest children of the Kallambah household stay close to their mother, Renata, so she can supervise and help them while they learn remotely at their home in Cape Girardeau on Tuesday, Sept. 22, 2020. All the children are learning from home in the 2020 fall semester due to COVID-19 pandemic with the optional “Tigers@Home” remote learning system for Cape Girardeau Public Schools.
