One way of predicting the future is to take something that's reasonably easy to predict - for example, that physical distancing policies will continue into the fall - and then mapping the consequences. Here's how Anya Kamanetz's wrote this up:
- Stepped-up health and hygiene measures
- Class sizes of 12 or fewer (and therefore) staggered schedules
- Younger kids first? New calendars
- Different attendance policies
- No assemblies, sports games or parent-teacher conferences
- Remote learning continues
- Social, emotional and practical help for kids
All of this makes sense. One wonders, however, how equitably it will be applied. Will we really see the money spend and accommodations made to support 12-student class sizes in impoverished school districts?
