The president of the American Federation of Teachers called Thursday for a full return to in-person learning in the fall, saying the union is “all in” on bringing students back to the classroom.
In prepared remarks obtained by The Associated Press, Randi Weingarten says the wide availability of vaccines and a new infusion of federal education money have removed many obstacles that prevented schools from opening.
“Conditions have changed,” Weingarten says in remarks for an address on social media. “We can and we must reopen schools in the fall for in-person teaching, learning and support. And keep them open. Fully and safely, five days a week.”

(Reuters) - The president of the second-largest U.S. teachers union on Thursday called for fully reopening schools for in-person classes in the fall.
Randi Weingarten, head of the American Federation of Teachers, added in a speech in Washington that just returning to classrooms wasn t enough. We must also put into place the supports to help students recover socially, emotionally and academically, she said.
Weingarten called this a moment to fully re-imagine the approach to education and push for creative solutions to the educational divide between white, Black and brown students that was exacerbated by the pandemic.
