Schools Press to Reopen as Omicron Variant Surges

“K-12 schools around the country are pressing forward with tentative plans to reopen after the holiday break in the midst of a surge in Covid-19 cases,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Their biggest challenge: getting enough rapid tests to be able to step up or launch ‘test-to-stay’ strategies.”

However, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports Atlanta Public Schools “announced Saturday that it will conduct classes remotely next week due the surge of coronavirus cases in the metro area.”
