Some schools were better prepared than others. What can we do to be ready for a blended learning environment going forward? We need to be ready for Covid19, the next pandemic &/or to reduce the impact of ‘summer slide’ or winter snow days...we can do it. npr.org/2020/05/07/851447550… – at Hillsboro, OR

Why Liberal Californians Don’t Want to Go Back to Normal (Published 2020)

You can't take online classes without internet. You can't work from home without internet. You can't apply for a job online if you don't have internet. Congress must prioritize expanding broadband in poor and rural communities.
