So, keeping desks 6 feet apart and wearing masks is something to complain about? Doing online learning is something people complain about?
So, what exactly are people proposing as a viable alternative?
High risk kids and high risk teachers stay home and distance learn together. No assemblies. More hand washing. Campaigns to get people to stay home if they are sick. No masks and no excessive social distancing.
The vast majority of kids and people under 65 (pretty much all teachers and staff) would be fine if they got Covid-19. It doesn't make sense to withhold education and social interaction from a whole generation of school children. I say let it ride.
The bigger issue I see is that the private schools will have the flexibility to open as normal. When people start jumping ship (and we are considering it) the entire public school system is going to collapse. Is that better than a small percentage of the population dying? I don't think so.
