Defund the schools and start over again with non-union teachers. Of course, this is a local problem, and as mayor that is what I would do.

In the beginning of the shut down my kid had one twenty minute video conference a day. Later it was 1 day a week. No idea what the teachers were doing all day instead of teaching.

Close all the schools, lay off all the teachers and administrators.

Go to real homeschooling.

_________________________________________________

Normally I’d err on the side of opening up things, but I’m a teacher and I know how things are in public education.

I’m most schools, the classroom sizes will be closer to 30-35. This is due to the fact that school systems have had their revenues crushed by the drop in overall property tax revenue this year. Teachers who are retiring are not being replaced...so, larger class sizes.

May be some systems could just delay 2 weeks in order to see how the recent spike in infections translates into deaths. Also, we can see if rate of infections begins to drop again.

I teach at an “alternative school”; one that is notorious for having kids sent to school sick because the parents don’t want them at home (or worse).
