As the coronaviruscontinues in Massachusetts this fall, the education of our children should be atop priority for our state & school district leaders. Many schools didn’tcontinue rigorous instruction during the shutdown.

They didn’t provide dailyschedules, take attendance or ensure daily interaction between teachers andstudents – as a result, our kids lost a third of their academic year.

MA state &district leaders are making school re-opening plans now, that could includeat-home schooling and hybrid options in the fall.

Sign the petition below and tell them that our kids need to continue to learn even if they’re not in a school building.
