> 1) Schools are about to be done for the academic year, so they're effectively shut down until August anyway. It wouldn't make sense to re-open schools for less than a month.

Though it could make sense to re-open them a month early, health concerns permitting. They already got a "summer break" and can make up for lost time

They most certainly did not get a summer break.

My kid is absolutely still participating in school, and quarantine is pretty stressful for a kid. This hasn't been just loafing around, relaxing, and playing.

My local schools have already called off the rest of the school year. At least for us, that horse has already left the barn.
