59% are against in-person classes at K-12 schools right now, which is up from 50% last month. Do you feel safe sending your kids back?
Most Americans aren’t ready for in-person schooling at the beginning of this academic year — and their numbers are going up.
What’s more, 56% of those surveyed said they don’t want day-care centers to fully reopen just yet, which is up from 53% in July. Senate Republicans have proposed given tens of billions of dollars to schools that reopen during the coronavirus pandemic, arguing that these learning centers will need more funding than those that stay closed. And in July, President Trump threatened federal funding for schools, writing “May cut off funding if not open!” in a Twitter TWTR, +0.42% post.
And while many schools in rural and suburban Georgia, Tennessee and Mississippi already reopened in early August, some have now been forced to close again as students and teachers have tested positive for COVID-19, as the New York Times reported. One school in Georgia’s Cherokee County has ordered more than 900 students and staff to quarantine after 59 people tested positive.
