We were planning to send Millie to PK3 a couple mornings a week this year, but have decided to hold off with COVID cases by us spiking to wait to see what happens the next few months. While our state (Florida) announced schools will be open for the school year, our county that we live in just announced that kids will not have to physically go into the classroom if their families decide against it.
Schools being closed has a MAJOR impact on parents and their work, a completely unfair setup for parents (mainly women) who are expected to work from home, homeschool, clean, cook, etc. So I completely see the need for schools to be open for our kids, and at some point I also think we will have to get back to living (even if it's with this virus, which is scary).
What about you and your kids? What are schools looking like in your area come this school year and what are you hoping for?
