ICYMI: The Cost of the School Shutdowns

A new study from McKinsey shows the school shutdown policies pushed by Democrats and supported by the teachers’ unions “was among the most destructive policies of the pandemic.”

“McKinsey found that children in majority black schools ended the school year a full six months behind in math and reading on average. Students in schools where the average household income was below $25,000 were seven months behind in math and six months in reading.”

Kim Schrier kept quiet about these devastating closures, and it’s easy to see why: Schrier rakes in big bucks from teachers’ unions.
