Ep. 199 - May 5, 2020: Mapping Out a Return to Schools

A visiting fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, John Bailey, joins Education Next Editor-in-chief Marty West to discuss Bailey's new study, which details how students and teachers can plan to return to physical school buildings in the 2020-21 academic year amid the Covid-19 pandemic. "It's going to be a lot of creative problem-solving to tackle this.," Bailey says. The report was developed with the help of "an all-star group" of 19 former education officials. "A Blueprint for Back to School," by Bailey and Frederick Hess, is available now: https://www.educationnext.org/a-blueprint-for-back-to-school-what-will-it-take-get-schools-ready-coronavirus-covid-19/
