SACRAMENTO, Calif As the growing coronavirus pandemic consumes California, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced the Safe Schools for All Plan, which encourages schools to reopen classrooms for in-person learning in Spring 2021.
The recommendation was driven by increasing evidence that there are lower risks and increased benefits from in-person instruction, particularly for the youngest students, Newsom said. The plan comes amid increased pressure on schools to reopen campuses based on those rationales.
