We can and<br />we must reopen schools in the fall for<br />in-person teaching, learning and support.<br />And we must keep them open fully and<br />safely five days a week, Randi Weingarten, via Fox News.<br />She went on to say that “nothing should stand in the way” <br />of fully reopening schools now that vaccinations are<br />available and other mitigation measures can be taken. .<br />According to Weingarten, 89 percent<br />of her union’s 1.7 million members are either<br />fully vaccinated or want to be. .<br />Creating safe conditions in schools during<br />a public health crisis is not an obstacle to<br />reopening to classrooms -- it's the pathway<br />to going back, staying back and creating<br />trust through the school community. , Randi Weingarten, via Fox News
