Karen Pence: ‘Returning to the Classrooms Will Help Our Students Get Back on Track Academically’

‘Research shows that lengthy time away from school can impact a student’s mental and emotional well-being’

EXCERPT:

PENCE: "We know the value of in-person learning. It's well documented. And there is evidence of the negative impacts on children because of school closures this past spring. We don't want our children to fall behind academically. And returning to the classrooms will help our students get back on track academically. But in addition to achieving well academically we know that schools offer our children an opportunity to strengthen their social skills.”
