We’ve heard a lot about the distance learning going on at K-12 schools during this coronavirus pandemic shutdown. But there’s a good number of kids who are not distance learning for a variety of reasons and badly need schools to reopen. 

We depend on your support. Donate to Connecticut Public today.

Connecticut Public Radio’s All Things Considered host John Henry Smith spoke with Robert Rader, the executive director of the Connecticut Association of Boards of Education.
