With masks now optional in many school districts, some parents are calling for everything to go back to a pre-pandemic normal in schools.
CBS 2 News Political Investigator Dana Kozlov learned even if districts want to do that, it may come at a cost not just a health or public relations cost but it could mean the loss of cold, hard cash.The cost can include federal grant dollars tied to covid leaving some districts in limbo and being harshly criticized by parents.
“She was explaining some of the other mitigations they were using, in schools particularly related to a Valentine’s Day party.”But Stephanie Jones says the possibility of losing COVID-related grant money is a real concern. The money is tied to requirements that districts adhere to all local, state, and federal COVID laws and the specifics of a district’s ‘return to in-person learning plan’ it submitted to the State Board of Education.
For cash-strapped districts, in particular, that could be devastating. So, Jones says this email, really about who can help out at a Valentine’s Day party, is an example of a complicated COVID landscape education leaders are forced to navigate.
