The field of education has to adjust to the new normal and come up with new and effective ways to deliver education and any wrap around services in an environment where in person attendance is highly unstable.
What is needed is two models:
One for Grade K-3 (kids too young to legally be left home alone) allowing for in-school care as much as possible, with bus transportation provided; but also hybrid to allow parents to keep students home.
One for grades 4-12 fully virtual.
The problem is that this is quite unfair to teachers of Grades k-3 forcing them to take on risks that Grades 4-12 teachers don't need.
K-3 teachers need to be designated as Essential Workers -- different from Grade 4- 12 teachers. It should be part of the teacher license.
