HARTFORD, Conn. – The nation's two largest teachers unions are calling on schools to revise or eliminate active shooter drills. The American Federation of Teachers and National Education Association issued a report Tuesday with the advocacy group Everytown for Gun Safety Support. They assert that simulating a school shooting can harm the mental health of students and educators. They say schools should instead concentrate on training teachers to respond to emergencies. Jean-Paul Guilbault, the chief executive of the Alice Training Institute, which runs active shooter drills, says they are effective when done appropriately. 641

From the outside, the chaos and screaming from the kids room at this YMCA in Burlington Kentucky, seems pretty normal.But in the world of COVID-19, it’s anything but.“The world has really changed and is changing by the minute,” said Jorge Gomes, director of Greater Cincinnati YMCA.The Greater Cincinnati YMCA took the call to action and is closing down other operations to focus on childcare for parents who can’t work from home, especially those on the front lines fighting this pandemic.“We have opened childcare centers specifically to help and support those individuals that are hospital staff and first responders," said Gomes. "Our intent is to give these kids a safe fun environment while they’re families are saving the world."Childcare is going is a big deal while the country weathers the storm. Normally, during working hours, parents rely on the school system for that, among many other things.No one knows that better than Kathy Burkhardt.“Our schools don’t close," she said. "We’re open until 6 in the evening; sometimes beyond that. We provide summer feeding, summer care, after school care."Burkhardt runs the Erlanger-Elsmere School District (EESD). She and her staff aren’t changing anything while school is out. The school will continue to feed children. “Three of our schools are open right now for breakfast and lunch,” said Amanda Ponchot, nutrition director for EESD.Additionally, the school district is checking on students struggling with their mental health issues.“Our counselors are still checking in with our high-need kids, everyday,” said Amber Evans, youth services coordinator for the district.And making sure kids have a place to stay.“We typically serve about 300 students [experiencing] homelessness,” said Shelly Warner, the Families in Transitions Coordinator at EESD.These are just many of the things that our education system is tasked with handling, coronavirus or not.“We see our role as making sure students are successful, and if all you’re doing is focusing on what’s happening from 8 to 3, then you’re not really doing all you can do for children and families,” said Burkhardt.All of the district's actions are helping in times like this, especially the meals for families who are preparing for the worst.“We're trying to ration our food, so we’ve created like a little sign out snack sheet, so they're allowed two snacks a day,” said Nina Vogt, a mom with three kids at home from school. But the spirit of the community is strong, and its members think by working together they can help keep families and kids safe and fed.“There is some simplicity with just simply walking away for a couple of weeks and some extreme complexities when you think about trying to launch a whole new idea, but this is what we do," said Gomes“Stay calm. You can do this and reach out to people in your district or in your community to help you, because together we can do so much more than we can alone,” said Burkhardt.  2966

How many things have you done using your internet today?If you're on your phone reading this article, that counts as one. Catching up with friends, checking social media, sending email, streaming Netflix; the list goes on.The point is, internet use has become intertwined with our every day lives. But for 141 million Americans, it’s not. And it's not by choice."This has been an issue even before COVID,” said Brena Smith, who manages a library system outside of Denver.Since so many of us have been stuck home because of the coronavirus, internet has gone from a nice accessory to a close necessity as so many parts of our lives have moved almost exclusively online. It has highlighted the struggle those 141 million Americans face."Broadband is like water and electricity now. You’ve got to have it,” said Gina Millsap, who serves as director of the Topeka and Shawnee County Library in Kansas.There are two major issues facing Americans when it comes to broadband accessibility. The first is location. In many rural parts of the country, building a broadband system can prove to be difficult. Part of that is topography, such as in mountainous regions, another is profitability, as it is not prudent for cable companies to invest money to build the network for small cities and neighborhoods where they might not generate much revenue.The second, and more widespread issue, is affordability, as three times as many urban Americans don’t have broadband access compared to rural Americans."U.S. broadband prices are among the most expensive in the world,” said Gigi Sohn, a distinguished fellow with the Benton Institute for Broadband and Society. "The median price is somewhere between and a month.”To help the government issued the Lifeline program, which first started in 1985 as a way to bring phone service to low-income households. Currently, it gives .25/month to low-income families to help with broadband service, but Sohn says that’s not enough. "The idea that the government has nothing to do with this magical service is a bunch of nonsense,” she said.In May, the House of Representatives introduced the HEROES Act. Along with a new round of stimulus checks and help to small businesses, the trillion stimulus bill would allocate /month for low-income families to spend on broadband services. Even though the bill passed the House by a narrow margin it is expected to face heavy opposition in the Senate.“For years when I would try and talk to folks about broadband internet access they would say, ‘yeah, Gigi, that’s important, but that’s not my core thing,'” said Sohn. “Now it’s everybody’s primary issue."Sohn says to solve the broadband issue the government needs to continue to invest, and not just during the pandemic, as a way to promote competition between the limited number of broadband providers in different regions around the country.“We need to solve it for good,” she said. 2931

Flyers with Nazi swastikas were posted at a California school just days after a Holocaust survivor shared her firsthand horrors with students who had posted anti-Semitic photographs during a party.Ten flyers were discovered at Newport Harbor High School on Sunday morning. Police were called and the flyers were removed. While posting the flyers is not a crime, Newport Beach police are investigating.School principal Sean Boulton said in a statement: "Again we condemn all acts of anti-Semitism and hate in all their forms. We will continue to be vigilant with our stance, and the care of our students and staff."But one senior at the school, Max Drakeford, called the latest episode "super disheartening -- a step backward."Drakeford, whose grandmother survived the Holocaust, said the posters "send a message that we aren't welcome at our own school."Katrina Foley, mayor of the neighboring city of Costa Mesa, where the party was held, said she felt there was a sinister motive."That tells me that there is a small group of people who want to intimidate students from speaking out. We should not allow that to happen, she told CNN's Sara Sidner. "They are trying to intimidate an entire community from speaking out."Rabbi Reuven Mintz, who has been working with the school district to educate students about the Holocaust, said he believed the posters were put up by an outside group, not students.He had been alarmed by the participation of some Jewish students in the initial incident on March 3 when teenagers posted photos of themselves with arms raised in a Nazi salute around a swastika made of plastic cups. "The fact that they didn't stop it is disturbing to me."After the images were shared online and reported in the media, Mintz helped to bring Eva Schloss, an Auschwitz survivor and stepsister of Anne Frank, to talk to the school.Schloss was brutally honest about the horrors she and other teenagers endured at the hands of the Nazis. She told the students about the Nazi gassing of Jewish people and targeting of disabled people and their children.Those who were there say many of the teenagers involved with the viral pictures were crying. Many of the students have also written open letters of apology to the Jewish community, the city, the school district, friends and family.In the series of letters obtained by CNN, the authors said they take responsibility and did not consider the impact of the Nazi imagery.The person who took the photos and posted them on Snapchat wrote: "I had the opportunity to step up and voice that what was going on was not right. I also had the choice to leave but I did not and for that I am so very sorry."Another wrote: "Please give us the chance to show who we really are. We can't erase what we did, but we have to try to make it better and show you we are not the people we seemed to be during a few minutes of stupidity."Even as the posters were being discovered on Sunday, Mintz was with some of the students from the photo at the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles, where they met another Holocaust survivor.She reminded the students that when she was their age, she was in a concentration camp, Mintz said. And he said he believed the interventions were having an impact."I've seen amazing things from these students," he said. "They really want to be outspoken advocates against hate. These kids are being transformed." 3394

Former President Jimmy Carter suggested Friday that a full investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election would show that Donald Trump didn't win the presidency."There's no doubt that the Russians did interfere in the election. And I think the interference, although not yet quantified, if fully investigated would show that Trump didn't actually win the election in 2016. He lost the election and he was put into office because the Russians interfered on his behalf," Carter said at the Carter Center's retreat in Leesburg, Virginia.Asked if he believes Trump is an illegitimate president, Carter paused for a moment."Based on what I just said, which I can't retract," Carter said to audience laughter. 729
