PUEBLO â The lives of essential workers go beyond the front-lines of the pandemic.
Thatâs why Puebloâs School District 70 spearheaded a program for children whose parents are essential to fighting the pandemic. The "Fair Care" program partnered with the Boys and Girls club of Pueblo to organize seven different locations - two in D70, two in D60, and three with the Boys and Girls club - for students to get help from substitute teachers with their remote learning.
