Dear reader,
 
Home base for The Hechinger Report is New York City, but we also have journalists in Massachusetts, Mississippi, Oregon, Delaware, Washington, D.C., Washington State and Texas. When we gather (these days, only on Zoom, of course) we have one question in common: What will education look like this fall?
 
There are no easy answers, but this week, we give you a few glimpses of coping. A hotline in Los Angeles, where soothing guidance and referrals are available. A Brooklyn parent looking for equitable solutions to a confusing and unsettled fall schedule. A community activist in the Mississippi Delta, getting food to the hungry while grieving the loss of her sister-in-law to coronavirus and helping raise her nephew.
 
We tell you what students want from reopening, and what it’s like when college campuses in hotspot areas welcome students back – only to send them right back home again. We are all of us living the biggest education story of our time, and – as always – we love hearing from you.

Main Idea 

Restorative circles, online wellness rooms and grief training: How schools are preparing for the Covid mental health crisis 

More students are experiencing anxiety and depression, forcing schools to prioritize mental health needs over academic work.
Reading List 

‘We just pick up the pieces’: As a new school year starts, this Mississippi Delta community is fighting for survival

Generations of Black children in Holmes County bear scars from the state’s underinvestment in their education. Now, the community is trying to regroup as a new school year begins.
 

Students have their own demands for school reopening

Mental health support, better remote instruction and a focus on vulnerable students: High schoolers are pressing legislatures and school boards to make their appeals heard.
 

OPINION: We can make podding equitable if parents work together

At our Brooklyn public school, parents are trying to create pandemic-safe child care options that everyone can access, but we need help.
