re: Can we all agree that there won’t be school in the Fall

You better tell them all to start filing for unemployment. If you think school employees deserve to work with no school you can go pound sand.

frick off. School employees have been working plenty from home. If your kid’s teachers haven’t, maybe take them to a better school because ours certainly have.

Plus there are studies showing little to no transmission from children.

I'm more concerned about the adults giving it to each other, than I am about the kids giving it to each other / the adults.

But there are ways to prevent that.

Multiple colleges have pulled out of fall sports and won’t hold in class sessions either.

It has a chance to occur

I pray the kids go back to school in fall. My youngest is a freshman this year and she is not doing well with the online learning. She needs to be in school.

That said, there's something to keep an eye on. There was an article yesterday talking about some sort of "shock" virus popping up in children, with over 100 cases in NYC alone resulting in deaths and ICU (system literally goes into shock, blood vessels widen, extreme internal pain, etc.). The NYC doctors believe this could be tied to COVID, meanwhile doctors in CA have said they don't believe their cases are related to COVID. If the numbers of these cases increase without any real understanding of what's happening, there may be some real hesitation in reopening schools. I'm praying the CA doctors are right and that this is unrelated and non-contagious. Something to keep an eye on.

If there isn't school in the fall, I will see that as a direct attack on private schools by the state.

Unless the governors of those states are planning to use bailout money to save private schools, which I seriously doubt.

Progressives want to get rid of religious schooling, and I would bet money they see this as an opportunity to further that goal.

I would think it would involve plating meals, placing on trays, placing trays on one of those upright rolling carts that have the plastic that surrounds it, and then rolling it to a class?

---

Possibly. Most schools that opt for meals in the classroom do bagged lunches. Those might still be warm (nuggets, pizza, etc.), but it is specifically food that can be wrapped and bagged.

One thing that could happen is a masked/gloved employee cart hot pans of food from classroom and classroom and dish it out right there in the classroom, then hand out the plates.

There will be additional cost, I guess that will come from the government via the school lunch program increased funding?

The people I work with hire out their food services, so it is a bit different. I don't work with large public school districts that have their own internal food service. They essentially pay "a caterer" for lack of better words to produce their meals. So it is whatever that third party decides is best to make the Covid requirements happen.

I don't know the ins and outs of how it will be when school starts, but yes schools are receiving increased funding right now because they are not required to differentiate students by free/reduced/paid. All students are being considered free, which is the highest per-meal reimbursement.

As of right now, there is no indication this will continue once the school year begins. If schools go back to the free/reduced/paid model, funding is not increased as I understand it. But there are certainly ways to make distanced meal service happen without too much of a burden on schools. Lots of schools don't have cafeterias and they make it work with carts and whatnot.

TL;DR - I guess stay tuned
