“The idea that public schools have failed us is a propaganda campaign. Right now we see a lot of parents being upset at school districts and teachers, wondering why they can’t send their children back to school. The bigger problem is there’s a lack of government leadership dealing with fundamental problems of a pandemic, causing community spread that’s out of control. Until we get rid of the spike in infections, we can’t leave it up to the schools to control it.” Listen: https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-xf933-f20d76
