COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

I hope one of the positive outcomes of the outbreak is broad support for smaller class sizes. Parents are overwhelmed with 1-3 kids at home. Teachers trying to educate with thirty 2nd graders and no aide where the population is 50%+ on free lunches is just not a recipe for great educational outcomes. I hope teachers unions make a real push this fall for greater educational spending with a focus on smaller class sizes.

A BIG issue is that kids aren’t allowed to be around children and many times can’t really get out and play. It is a miserable existence for children right now. There is really no telling what type of harm we are doing to them right now.
