[quote=Anonymous]People keep posting the public policy argument for schools (AAP, this economist, etc) and then using it to say schools should be open to all students in the fall. That's not what those documents mean. 1. School is really important ... so we should make major changes to suppress covid and also temporarily change how schools are run. Not just return to a pre-covid situation. 2. Public schools are more important to certain populations, e.g., those who are food insecure, kids in unsafe situations, kids with special needs, etc. That doesn't mean all kids need to go to school: it suggests prioritizing certain groups with greater needs. If your kid is not hungry, abused, or special needs, these public policy arguments don't necessarily support him being in public school right now.[/quote]
