It's not easy. Concerns about health and wellbeing. Concerns about academic rigor. Concerns about social and mental health. Concerns about getting people back to work and surviving financially.
There is a lot for both families and educators to consider about the transition back to school this year. Much as with everything else about this time - it looks different all over the country.
Duality exists with both wanting to stay safe and wanting to get back to school. And that's okay.
I hope that with this you can feel heard. That you can accept your decision or make progress in coming to one. That we can see and accept the decisions of our neighbors and friends with understanding.
