More than 80 percent of California children are in districts that
Governor Gavin Newsom says must use remote-only learning when
schools return. That's prompted some parents to search for tutors
or teachers to come to their homes - sometimes in pandemic pods
with several families - to oversee distance learning. But these are
options only available to those who can afford them, and it's
raising concerns about further exacerbating rampant inequalities in
public education. We'll talk about the rush for private
teachers and the questions it raises about equity.
