John,

One of the first steps many communities took to fight the spread of COVID-19 was to close schools. With fall approaching, the question -- for teachers and staff, parents and kids, local leaders, retailers counting on back-to-school shoppers, and many others -- is whether schools can reopen.

In our newest Road to Recovery video, Dr. Jennifer Nuzzo, associate professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, says that reopening is possible -- if it's done right:

"I think we should be prepared to be creative," Dr. Nuzzo says in the brief video, where she explores approaches like phased opening and in-school bubbles to ensure that teachers, staff and students stay safe. If you're interested in how schools can open, watch today. And if you know others facing questions about schools reopening, take a moment to share Dr. Nuzzo's video:
