Charter Leaders,

Welcome to the ABC Science Collaborative!!
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, our nation’s school systems have faced unprecedented challenges. One of the most pressing challenges is deciding if children should return to school in person and, if so, how to do it safely and responsibly.
The ABC Science Collaborative is a program that pairs scientists and physicians with school and community leaders to help understand the most current and relevant information about COVID-19. The program helps school leaders make informed decisions about returning to school using data from their own communities. The ultimate goal of the program is to keep teachers, children, and their local communities healthy and safe.
Please check out the site. There are videos, webinars: https://abcsciencecollaborative.org/webinars/; learning resources: https://abcsciencecollaborative.org/learning-resources/, free posters, and more!
