    This is exactly what's going to happen. Many better-off kids are going back to in-person classes this Fall. Poorer kids will suffer from lack of social services (provided via schools) and be left behind in ways that will show up in every research project for the next fifty years.https://twitter.com/nicholedobo/status/1281397462150909954 …

    Just a reminder: The rich kids are going back to school no matter what the public schools decide to do. Homeschooling pods. Private tutors. And on and on. The gap will yawn further.

        Our failure may permanently bifurcate our already polarized education. After a year of small-group tutoring, those kids may never end up back with their former peers who lost that whole year, even if they were in same class before. Lifelong consequences.😢https://twitter.com/elizashapiro/status/1285242865023627264 …

        A note on homeschooling pods. 75% of kids who attend NYC public schools are low-income. So while a lot of people on here feel like the conversation about pods is suddenly everywhere - it's not even relevant for the vast majority of kids in this city at least.

        Thank you for understanding and being honest about what is happening. The problem is being given lipservice..."ensure access", "equivalent education online". How does that happen when there may be no parent at home or parents may not even speak English or a 2 hour teaching day?

        "Home schooling pods" just sent a shiver down my spine.

        How can you blame people with money for wanting their kids to have a better education than the distance learning currently being provided? What are we supposed to do? Ban tutors and home schooling? Force people to do distance learning through public/private schools?

        It seems like insane versus sane administration problem, not about economics. Our district is opening. But our Admin’s going about it in the right way giving parents final choice instead of a school deciding no school for all, which is what the insane administration’s are doing

        The fact that private schools feel bold enough to open in the first place drives home who the pandemic itself has disproportionately affected. It’s another reminder of who’s really at risk during a pandemic. Covid-19 is not an equalizer at all for sure.

        This argument has nothing (or at least very little) to do with private vs. public. If there's no in-person classes (private or public), most wealthy parents will hire home-school tutors or have small neighborhood/friend group pods with hired teachers.

        Yes precisely. In addition, we will see how women who had school-aged kids during the pandemic suffer from lower wages and depressed career trajectories for the rest of their lives.
