“Two new international studies show no consistent relationship between in-person K-12 schooling and the spread of the coronavirus. And a third study from the United States shows no elevated risk to childcare workers who stayed on the job.” https://t.co/ER0eqCOOKj — PolitiTweet.org

“It’s now October. We are starting to get an evidence-based picture of how school reopenings and remote learning are going… the evidence is pointing in one direction. Schools do not, in fact, appear to be major spreaders of COVID-19.” @ProfEmilyOster https://t.co/5Z0zYUhEEF https://t.co/t4YYBQVKLZ — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of students started this school year completely online out of concern for safety “… but recent data are shifting the discussion on school safety and infection rates of Covid-19. They argue strongly for opening K-12 schools.” https://t.co/NUXYZKZh4Q — PolitiTweet.org

“The conversation on schools has gotten very reductionist in terms of in-classroom risk. That risk is important, but it actually can be managed & very few are talking about the risks of kids being out of school. The consequences are devastating.”@j_g_allen https://t.co/WWqwIpUPJt https://t.co/6iY5GPI3oD — PolitiTweet.org

The science is clear: students are better off in school than out. The risks of #COVID19 can be managed, but the educational and social risks for millions of students stuck at home cannot. If we’re going to “believe science,” then let’s do just that: (THREAD) — PolitiTweet.org

The cost is just too high for kids to continue to be held captive by political special interests’ fears and agendas. Our children’s future and the future of our nation is at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

.@jonathanchait in @NYMag: Union’s incentives are misaligned with those of their students. Following the interests of the most powerful organized constituencies has produced a result that is irrational. The damage we are incurring now will haunt us for generations. — PolitiTweet.org

So why is this happening? “Teachers unions have been an influential force against reopening schools even in cities and states where elected officials felt it could be done with reasonable safety.” https://t.co/B51jlZVbIO — PolitiTweet.org

.@BrookingsInst: If public health were driving districts’ decisions, we might expect to see districts with relatively high COVID-19 rates opting for distance learning. In reality, there is no relationship between reopening decisions and cases. https://t.co/SzgvQJAWE2 https://t.co/i5y8KA6YuB — PolitiTweet.org

This pandemic has not affected students equally. Those most at risk—low income students and younger students—have borne the brunt of school closings. New K-2 data from @dcpublicschools is especially troubling. https://t.co/r4Isg9lXGd — PolitiTweet.org
