Is it such a bad thing? Anecdotally, the student enrollment in the school my kids are zoned for has gotten to the point where they had to bring Portables and put them in the field next to school to continue to support all the incoming kids. I dont know the specifics about why there isn't funding (or viability) to build a permanent structure. We also have not heard plans about building new schools to alleviate the overflow. Just to be clear, I realize schools are a mechanism for many kids to escape abusive parents, get proper meals and the numerous benefits of getting a structured education and companionship of peers. I just feel like we are trending towards blaming the pendemic for literally everything while systemic issues in education have existed long before pandemic ever happened.
