After last year’s abrupt shutdown of schools due to the coronavirus pandemic, increasing numbers of students returned to in-person learning.
But a new study shows that racial and geographic gaps persisted as K-12 students went back to their classrooms — with non-Hispanic white kids more often the ones attending a brick-and-mortar school full-time in most states.
From last September through April, students in the South also generally had greater access to full-time, in-person learning than those in other regions of the U.S., according to the study, featured in a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
The study’s lead author was Emily Oster, a Brown University economist who became a cultural icon for many U.S. parents during the COVID-19 pandemic for her data analysis of the health threats to children from the virus and advice on how to calculate risk.
At the same time, the conclusions from Oster that schools could reopen safely and that risks to children are generally low also drew pushback as federal public health officials grappled with crafting guidance for the nation’s schools.
The study found that access to in-person learning varied by state: 100% of students in Wyoming and Montana had access to in-person instruction, while Hawaii, Maryland and Washington had the lowest shares of students in their classrooms full-time....

Biden just unveiled his plan for a permanent Democrat gov: the Biden definition of “white supremacy” makes at least 26% of Americans into criminals—probably more. Whatever “they” don’t like is redefined as white supremacy and terrorism. They have that power now.....only a very specific flavor of racism and bigotry is on the Biden menu; it places all of our troubles on the shoulders of white Americans.......
The minority schools probably have “diverse” teachers who are staying on paid vacation as long as possible.
Translation: Conservative white Christians care about their children’s education. Blacks, Hispanics and white liberals not so much. They prefer to sit at home and suck on the government tit.
A man who keeps talking about how different people are from each other, never gets along with anyone else either.
Send in the troops. They must be stopped...it's racist.
I'm making an educated guess that Chinese and Indian students are being counted as "non-Hispanic white kids."

It is very scary.
The strongest correlation of student access to in-person education during COVID is which political party controls the state. You can see that by looking at the states she mentions in her article that had the highest and lowest in-person access to teachers. “100% of students in Wyoming and Montana had access to in-person instruction, while Hawaii, Maryland and Washington had the lowest shares of students in their classrooms full-time.” (I’m surprised Florida isn’t in the 100% bucket)
The CDC didn’t dare call it out that bluntly, so they get an F for their crappy analysis and the usual A for political cowardice.
Thanks.......seems the “retard” Biden is morphing into Ivan the Terrible.
Our country is so racist that illegals are pouring over our borders to get all the ‘free stuff’ that our government gold gives the, including free schooling
It's one thing to collude with the Brits... but I fear Biden's thug's will be 'colluding' with the Chinese and other commie thug 'intelligence groups' from around the world.
Are we the Jews in pre - World War II Germany believing 'it can't happen'? Saner voices will stop the madness?
“Ivan the Terrible” is an excellent analogy.
Or Stalin.
Attila the Hun.......
Umm, Why is the purview of the CDC?
I would imagine that many schools were built using wood and nails.

Very scary Newsweek article? I highly recommend it. I’m shocked Newsweek ran it.
So now the CDC is also the Department of Education?
