CONSIDERATIONS
• Stakeholders want a "return to normal":• Students and their parents want in-person
instruction, even at 6 ft social distancing;• Faculty and staff miss in-person
instruction, but have concerns about safety
• Mental health and social-emotional wellbeing are being impacted by the stress of COVID.
• The learning gap has widened during COVID. It is easier to understand and address the learning gap in person.

• Ability to conduct tests at school
• Results within 2 days or less (current turnaround is up to 14 days)

CONSIDERATIONS
What is the likelihood of infection?
From the New York Times:
• https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/07/31/us/coronavirus-school-reopening-risk.html
• As schools grapple with how to reopen, new estimates show that large parts of the country would likely see infected students if classrooms opened now.
