National Education Association President On New CDC Guidelines For School Reopening

February 16, 2021 by LPP Reporter

Last Friday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released new guidelines on how schools can safely reopen in the coronavirus pandemic.

Host Peter O’Dowd speaks with Becky Pringle, president of the National Education Association, about the reaction to the new guidelines.
