Fox News
The president of America’s second-largest teachers union is reportedly set to deliver a speech Thursday in which she will call on all schools to be open for "five days a week" of in-person learning for the next academic year.
"There is no doubt: Schools must be open. In person. Five days a week," Weingarten will say in a speech via social media today, The New York Times reports, citing a copy it has received of her prepared remarks. Teacher unions in some states have complicated the school reopening process as they have demanded coronavirus vaccinations and other mitigation measures before returning to classrooms.More Related News
