In 2020, the world was upside down by a virus which changed lives and schools were closed, this dangerous new virus spread quickly through communities worldwide giving us a lesson to learn.
Biggest lesson: in-person school is best for children and teens. Students get more than education at school, and that is an opportunity to interact with other kids.
Although COVID-19 threat is still not over, we now have many more tools to keep kids safely in school.
To keep kids healthy, multiple practices should be followed. This includes vaccines for everyone who is eligible, along with universal masking, physical distancing, washing hands and staying home when sick. These steps should be combined with good ventilation, testing/screening and contact tracing in the school community
Keeping students in schools starts with local, state, and Central government policies and guidance supported by science. To make it a success, everyone has to do their role so students and staff stay healthy and physically together in school.
