I know there are hurdles and logistical challenges but this is another tool in our toolkit - why not use it while we can?
Hopefully, most of us know at this point that ventilation and some distance is probably the best way to avoid contracting or spreading COVID-19. With that in mind the DOE has been saying for weeks now that windows and HVAC systems are going to be in some form of working condition - but they have not defined what that means. So, some folks are advocating for using the best ventilation fo all: outdoor teaching! It has happened before and, at least for the Fall, could be a good solution when it's not raining. Unfortunately, the city seems to be stopping efforts. Even my local city councilperson, Brad Lander, has advocated for doing this.
