The Parabola Project: Where Public Health and Education Meet

Even with the promise of a vaccine, schools are having to make the tough decision of whether or not they will reopen buildings this school year and how to keep students and staff safe while implementing an effective instructional model. The Parabola Project brings together public health expertise and education expertise to offer education leaders actionable guidance, tools, and strategies to understand and minimize risks while maximizing learning and wellness during COVID-19. Resources include the School Reopening Readiness Guide and toolkits covering topics like school air quality and building a mask culture. Join Ariadne Lab’s Margaret Ben-Or MPH and The Learning Accelerator’s Jin-Soo Huh, for an interactive conversation to learn about the resources they developed and what they have learned so far from their school partners that have reopened. The conversation will cover operational considerations and also supports for hybrid and remote learning models. There will be plenty of time for questions.
