There may be school for some kids … much later this fall.
Preschools … kindergartens and elementary schools might get waivers to open … if and when the hospitalization rate for CVOID 19 drops significantly.
Doctor Barbara Ferrer said yesterday that the state and county are workign on coming uop with criteria that might allow limited opening of schools.
The 35 counties in Californaa that are on the state monitoring list will probably not be eligible for the school opening waivers.
The percentage of positive test results needs to drop below 8 percent … and the case rate average needs to drop below 25 per 100 thousand people.
L.A. County’s current case rate is 381 per 100 thousand people.
