More students are failing because too many adults are failing kids. The evidence is clear: kids need access to in-person learning & it’s safe. There is no excuse to keep schools closed & to continue to deny kids the opportunity to be back in the classroom. washingtonpost.com/local/educatio…

Dr. Fauci on returning to in-person learning: “the default position should be to try as best as possible within reason to keep children in school, to get them back to school... the spread among children and from children is not really very big at all'
