I don't want be labeled a fear-monger, but issue of reopening schools is heating up quickly as Sept approaches and it'll be messy.
I suppose it's good that some SD schools have delayed opening so nationwide experience can be factored in to ultimate plan. nytimes.com/2020/08/01/us/…
If I were advising a large SD school district I would recommend embracing FULL, REMOTE LEARNING as the foundation for academic year 20-21. Get that planned to the best it can be, and only then add in-person experiences, first focusing on special needs of students and families.
The issue of home supervision of students is probably the greatest challenge and I don't have a great suggestion to address that. Maybe those families who genuinely cannot make it work at home will be the first to go in-person. IDK. Sacrifices will be required of many. Pandemic.
Influenza vaccinations and masks should be mandated. Exceptions can be made in the rare, special case. No problem. Trying to appease the ideologic and irrational demands of others is a waste of time. Pandemic.
These are my opinions based on my study of current events and my educational background in human physiology and medicine. I could be wrong.
