U.S. schools are scrambling to prepare for the upcoming academic year as the pandemic surges nationwide, topping 3 million confirmed cases. President Donald Trump has called on schools to reopen, but there is no federal plan to coordinate the effort. Later, Vice President Mike Pence said the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would clarify the guidance next week.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said everyone wants to open schools “but it must be safe for the children.” White House spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany said Trump wanted to tie federal funds directly to students, and not their school district if it closes. But DeVos argued schools can safely re-open now, something echoed by some of Trump’s fellow Republicans in Congress.
