Getting four year olds to wear masks all day, not allowing them to play together and no sharing of items will be...interesting.

My daughter is home from UCSB and taking her classes online. She's planning on returning to school in Sept. and there will likely be a hybrid approach. Large lectures will be online but her labs will be in person. Fortunately she already has signed her lease on her apartment.

My son is a high school senior who has now seen his end of the year activities disappear. His high school is trying their best to at least offer them a form of graduation. On 6/8/20 we'll join the rest of his class at the local drive in movie theater to watch the graduation video compiled of photos sent in from families along with the speakers who were filmed delivering their speeches. Last night was supposed to be their senior prom which would have been held up at the Science Center near downtown Los Angeles. However considering the state of civil unrest, it's better that they had to remain at home. He's now registered for classes to begin at the local community college this fall.
VERY happy that your son's school is being so understanding concerning Seniors! We got caught in the middle of a parade of cars that seniors had decorated, and were driving around in celebration. It was fun, and when it was time for us to get out of the parade, we tooted in solidarity!

Thank you honeychile! Here is the coverage from our local paper on the parade. From a class of 420 they estimated that 300 participated! We had great cooperation from the city fire and police departments who coordinated with the school faculty and staff to see this fun activity happen. Also we're grateful to the neighbors who decorated, cheered and graciously let the parade take over their streets for two hours.
