COVID's toll on schools has lawmakers thinking about big changes


TRENTON Consecutive school years upended by the coronavirus pandemic have state lawmakers considering drastic steps to help students catch up, such as widespread summer school and giving parents the option to have their child repeat a grade.

Advocates say the state has not prioritized this medically vulnerable population throughout the pandemic, so this is par for the course.
“None of the sites will vaccinate them, even when they have openings, and I know they have had openings because I have staff receiving phone calls from vaccine places with cancellations,” said Steve Cook, executive director of the Arc of Mercer County, who oversees 325 full- and part-time staff members who help care for 85 residents. ....
