A key moment in this v good @emilybazelon roundtable about remote learning: Denver schools chief says they& #39;ll start offering child care for K-5 students, and @nhannahjones asks: "Why child care providers or paraprofessionals instead of teachers teaching?" https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/09/11/magazine/covid-school-reopenings.html">https://www.nytimes.com/interacti...
More: "The science doesn’t change based on whether you have a childcare provider or a teacher in the building. If we’re saying we don’t know enough for teachers to come back in classrooms but we know enough for low-wage child care workers to come back in—I don’t understand that."
Denver schools chief @susancdenver answers, "Yes, it’s a crazy world when we’re saying it’s not safe for teachers but people who make $15-$20/hr can come back. I’ve said to my teachers [and] my school board, & #39;I don’t want to be the leader of an organization that believes that.& #39;”
