I am a New York City public high school student. The situation is beyond control
Freddie de Boer just wrote something on his Substack about this - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;freddiedeboer.substack.com&#x2F;p&#x2F;many-kids-dont-have-a-warm-safe-healthy" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;freddiedeboer.substack.com&#x2F;p&#x2F;many-kids-dont-have-a-w...</a><p>The quick takeaway is that school is that for the most vulnerable kids, school is about a lot more than education. Taking school away from those kids can be much more damaging than many people realize.<p>It seems to me like that right strategy would be to just say something like:<p><pre><code>    We encourage all kids to stay home, but if you can&#x27;t, that&#x27;s ok. You can come to school and have a warm, quiet place to spend the day, and we&#x27;ll provide free lunch to everyone who comes.

Forget about the education piece for a while, just provide the (very important for some people) day care part.
