In September the Independent Institute hosted the event “From Crisis to Opportunity: COVID Lockdowns and Educational Freedom” ([link removed]) in Washington, D.C., featuring Senator Rand Paul, Dr. Scott Atlas, and Dr. James Tooley.
The event shed much-needed light on the harms inflicted on our children through the lockdowns and mandates, how the lockdowns exposed deep-rooted problems in America's state-run education system, and, most importantly, what opportunities for educational innovation are possible.
We are especially grateful to Senator Rand Paul for his stirring opening remarks; to Dr. Scott Atlas, for his courage and candor; and to Dr. James Tooley for his research in the world of education and his conviction that we can—indeed, must—do better for our students.
The full video of the event is now online:

Almost overnight a virus brought into question America’s nearly 200-year-old government-run K–12 school-system—and prompted an urgent search for alternatives. But where should we turn to find them? Enter James Tooley’s Really Good Schools.
We hope to see you at future Independent Institute events!
